This is a nice set.  It is lightweight, so if your looking for the traditional heavy matelassé, this is not it. However, the color has been hard for me to find.  The one I purchased previously was wonderful, but too light (and a greenish-gray).  This one is much darker, as needed.  It has a bluish/purple undertone, but I have enough charcoal and white that it works very well.  I am pleased with this purchase.
