Our Quilts
"Normandy, land of gentle, slumbering melancholies.
The scent of autumn delicately caresses our senses as sunlight filters softly through the curtains. The cosy warmth of our home, the aroma of chestnuts roasting on the wood fire. Winter mist still shrouds the chalk cliffs. Their pristine white gently meets the waves of an unruffled sea. The first buds brush a land still numb with sleep. Joyful reunions on forest paths. In summer, nature unfurls its wings above the flax fields, rippling in the breeze. Each season whispers its story, if only we listen closely."
Somewhat nostalgic, the quilt reminds us of the cosy benches at our grandmothers’ homes, the soft beds where the scent of toast and hot chocolate would wake us on winter mornings. The quilt is the thread that connects memories of family gatherings, fireside reading, and the dreamy, cheerful rhymes of childhood. Binding generations together—family and friends alike—the quilt tells tales of years gone by and becomes a true madeleine de Proust.
What is the composition of Embrin linen quilts?
Our linen quilts are crafted in our own workshop in Normandy. The filling is made from wadding, 50% merino and 50% recycled polyester, produced less than 20 kilometres from the Farm. Merino wool is renowned for its high warmth rating, ensuring comforting winters. Stitched directly to the fabric, our wadding guarantees excellent durability for both washing and everyday use.
Both snug and lightweight, the quilt, placed at the foot of the bed or draped over a sofa, warms little and large feet alike when winter arrives. It warmly envelops the shoulders of those who enjoy sipping hot tea in the morning sunlight, and of the young ones who stay up late, listening to stories from their elders.
The Embrin quilt collection: a key decorative element
The quilt naturally complements the palette of colours inspired by our sofas, our curtains and our bed linen. The quilt offers a fresh take on the traditional boutis: here, floral patterns sit alongside Japanese-inspired prints to bring grace, lightness, and whimsy to your interior décor. Paired with a few cushions, it will lend the bed comfort and voluptuousness for warm nights, soothing naps, and carefree moments of leisure.
Why choose a linen quilt?
Choosing an Embrin quilt simply means:
- Being sure of drifting off in a cocoon of warmth.
- Enjoying it all year round: on the bed, sofa, armchair, or even in the car…
- Perfecting your interior décor with a piece featuring timeless patterns.
Soft, comforting material, linen fabric, motifs steeped in authentic stories… The quilt invites you to take your time, whatever the season. Time to warm up after a rainy afternoon spent splashing through puddles. Time to savour a freshly baked apple tart as the cold settles outside. Time to drift off peacefully while the wind whispers through the trees stripped bare by autumn.
