The quilt is a lovely color, but is actually a cotton, polyester blend. The description only lists "cotton" as material. I searched for a long time for something cotton, and I'm disappointed that the description of the item is inaccurate. I also wish it was possible to find king quilts with matching shams sold separately or with an option of king or standard. Overall, I was not upset enough with this purchase to return, but I would not purchase again.
