I love this bedding set.  It's every bit as lovely in person as it is pictured.  Also, I'm sort of picky about comforters in two regards. First, some comforters have backing that can be itchy and others can be so slick that the comforter easily falls off the bed in the night. This one is perfect. Secondly, I like to snuggle up with my blankets, but I hate being too hot while I sleep.  Again, this comforter is perfect: warm and heavy but not overly so. In sum, not only is it beautiful and elegant, but it's also soft and cozy and makes me hate getting out of bed in the morning even more than I did before.  :-)
