The background color in this set is much more of a deep mustard  than what you see in the picture.  It's pretty, but more difficult to match up with other colors.  The Quilt is cotton.  I found myself cold the first night and bought a blanket for the 2nd.  But, if you like an antique look, and I do, this is sweet.  Now I need to find a bed-skirt that will work.  Not sure how difficult that venture will be.

Pros: Classy, pretty Quilt.
Cons: Odd background color and hard to match with other colors.
