Matelassé means “padded” in French and refers to the fabric’s sense of luxurious depth while bypassing the use of padding or fillers. Weighing up to eight pounds when complete, the production of each blanket involves at least ten people, including nearly thirty minutes on a card-controlled jacquard loom. 

The design features a cornucopia found on the 1830-1850 blanket and symbolizes the bounty of America. Woven in a bright, clean white, the 100% cotton blanket is made from a combination of heavier 3.75/2 American yarn and then super fine 20/2 and 30/2 yarns from Tamil Nadu in southern India.

“We wanted to bring a Matelassé blanket to Roseland because of the honest luxury in the technique: no padding or fills—just cotton woven slowly, in America, on a historic loom.” – Clare de Boer, owner

  • a near lost art

    Matelassé is a unique weaving technique that is both labor-intensive and material consuming. At this time, Maine Heritage Weavers is the only American manufacturer dedicated to preserving the technique in the USA.

  • luxurious, without the padding

    The honest luxury of matelassé is that it achieves its rich texture with more cotton and loom time rather than the use of fillers or quilting.

A Symbol of Plenty

The cornucopia design, inspired by an 1830–50 quilt from Virginia, is intertwined with grapevines, symbolizing the abundance and fertility of the Americas.

Beautiful blanket

"I have had this blanket saved for months. I finally purchased it and it completely exceeded my expectations. It’s so well made, and substantial weight while not being too heavy or hot. It’s large enough to cover a king (I got king sized) and I washed and dried it and no shrinking whatsoever. It’s so rare these days to feel the quality of something like this so clearly but the second I unpacked it I was impressed."

The most gorgeous heirloom blanket

"Absolutely love this thoughtfully made and absolutely gorgeous blanket. Has been our bed topper for over a month now and it provides the perfect amount of warmth and coziness for us here in Texas. The quality is unmatched in my opinion. Thank you soooo so much! I'll be back for gifting these blankets to my loved ones."

Oustanding Quality!

"This Matelasse blanket is absolutely beautiful! This is the first matelasse blanket I have ever bought and I am far from being disappointed. The feel of the cotton is very soft and the craftsmanship is superb. Many hours went into the making of this blanket. It has a very nice weight, heavier than anticipated, to keep you cosy and warm. I had to research how to keep this beauty white and crisp without having to use any chemicals and I am glad to see that there are friendly options out there that will keep my blanket white and safe. It truly brings light and a rustic feel to our bedroom. This blanket goes with any kind of decor. We have Southern Asian decorations with hand carved teak panels and mahogany color furniture, as well as a hand block print quilt and pillows handmade by artisans in India and this blanket fits like a glove!"

Incredible Quality

"Just received my Matelasse Blanket and I’m gobsmacked by the quality of this product. I had been looking for a replacement of a much-loved Matelasse Blanket that had dressed our bed for years, but could not find the heft and quality that matched it. Until now! Extremely happy with this version and cannot say enough about its beauty and quality for what I consider a fair and reasonable price. A big shoutout for Roseland’s customer service and timely delivery as well. Buy with confidence here. I know I’ll be back for more of their products. True excellence all around."

Fabulous

"Arrived faster than expected. I thought they were Girl Scout cookies so I didn't open the box for at least a week. But I have had so many cotton blankets. They were better than polyester but always disappointed. HOWEVER, this one is dreamy. So soft, so gorgeous in its design. Not too thin, not too thick. Plenty long on the sides, this is a quality blanket in every way. I love looking at the pattern as I'm trying to fall asleep in its softness."

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I wash/dry the Matelassé Blanket?

We recommend a gentle wash cycle with warm water. Do not use any bleach or detergent with bleach additives. Tumble dry with low heat.

Does the Heirloom Warranty apply to the blanket?

Unfortunately it does not. It is unrealistic for Maine Heritage Weavers to repair individual blankets. Matelassé is inherently strong and durable and should last a lifetime as long as it is taken care of.

Are there any materials not sourced in America?

50% of the yarn used for the Matelassé Blanket is sourced from Tamil Nadu, India, where the finer yarn in the blanket (20/2 and 30/2 yarns) is more readily available. The heavier half is from the delta region of the USA. However all our imported textile materials are Oeko-Tex Certified

What does Oeko-Tex certified mean?

Oeko-Tex is an internationally recognized testing standard that tests for 1000 substances deemed harmful to humans. Certification requires an item passing this safety test. In the Matelassé, the imported 50% of the cotton undergoes this test. The 50% domestic cotton from the delta region complies instead with USDA regulations.

What is the return policy for the Matelassé blanket?

We accept returns within 30 days of when your order arrives. Blankets that have been used, washed or damaged are not eligible for return or exchange.

How does exposure to sunlight or prolonged use affect the natural fiber’s longevity?

Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause yellowing to the white color and fading to natural cotton or dyed cotton.

What’s the process for removing stains?

Tips:

  • Remove the stain as soon as possible.
  • Heat sets stains, making them harder to remove.  Avoid running your blanket through the dryer until the stain has been removed.

Technique:

  • Pour small amount of bleach alternative (we recommend Tide plus bleach alternative) over the affected area.
  • Rinse with cold water while rubbing.
  • Repeat if needed.
  • Launder normally (see above).

How much shrinkage can I expect if I wash my bedspread or coverlet?

Our products are preshrunk. You can expect no more than 2% shrinkage, if any.
