No interior Design but a precious Accessory for your Bedroom

Interior Design has a lot to do with aesthetics. Even if a certain design may not represent your taste and preferences it still is about aesthetics.
Why do we collect all sorts of things? Because we find an object simply beautiful or because it is reminiscent of wonderful memories or because it spreads humour or because we affiliate a certain attitude with it. Quilts on the bed are an attitude. And it can be a wonderful aesthetic attitude for a room, especially when it is a heirloom or a precious piece such as this one - made of silk and handstitched with silk thread in many many hours.
