About the Silk & Snow Muslin Coverlet
What makes the Silk & Snow Muslin Coverlet special is its construction. Most muslin is thin enough for baby swaddles, but this muslin coverlet stacks 4 layers of muslin into a soft, satisfyingly textured blanket. The result is a loosely woven fabric that feels cozy and warm without trapping heat, so it suits hot sleepers and anyone who prefers lightweight bedding.
Silk & Snow muslin bedding works as a complete collection. The Silk & Snow Muslin Coverlet pairs perfectly with the Silk & Snow Muslin Quilt, the muslin duvet cover and the Silk & Snow Muslin Sham Set. The duvet cover and shams feature a beautiful button enclosure made from coconut shell, and the Muslin Sham Set slips over your pillows like pillowcases. Add a Silk & Snow sheet set underneath for a fully layered bed. Like the coverlet, the Muslin Sham Set shams are soft, breathable and get softer over time, and the muslin duvet cover uses the same beautiful button enclosure details for a consistent look, adding beauty and sleep-ready comfort to any King or Queen bed.

Materials and Construction

- Weight: Silk & Snow says weight and layers are a more accurate indicator of quality than thread count. The Silk & Snow Muslin Coverlet has a GSM of 400 (grams per square metre), compared with 165 for the Silk & Snow Muslin Quilt, muslin duvet cover and shams.
- Open gauze weave: Air moves easily through the fabric, helping you stay cool for soothing sleep.
- OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100: Silk & Snow muslin bedding is certified free of harmful chemicals.
- Made in Portugal: The yarn is spun in Santo Tirso, Portugal, and the fabric is dyed, cut, sewn and washed in Guimarães, Portugal.

Colour Options
The Silk & Snow Muslin Coverlet comes in nine colours: Cream, Oat, Luna, Chai, Misty Rose, Eucalyptus, Buttercream, Lilac and Tempest Blue. Neutrals like Cream, Oat and Luna pair easily with existing sheets, while Misty Rose, Lilac and Tempest Blue add soft colour to a room. Match the muslin coverlet with the Silk & Snow Muslin Sham Set and coconut shell-buttoned shams in the same shade, or mix colours with your sheets for a layered look.

Care and Cleaning
Silk & Snow lists the following materials and care details for the muslin coverlet:
- 100% cotton
