This is absolutely beautiful.  The burgundy is a true burgundy, and the spread has embroidery all over it!  I didn't notice when I ordered, but that makes this outstanding.  It does not look old fashioned, it has a sleek look to it.  After reading the reviews, I ordered a king for a queen bed, and that made it drape over the sides to cover the mattresses.  Not heavy, perfect for North Florida winters, nights into 50-60's.
