Customer Reviews for Marimekko Pippurikera Sage Full/Queen Comforter

Marimekko Pippurikera Sage Full/Queen Comforter

A concentric doodle plays positive-negative in designer Annika Rimala's 1963 pattern Pippurikera (pepper ball). The large-scale design is reflective of her transition away from small prints as her popularity grew, culminating in her 20-year leadership of Marimekko's design department. Known for larger-than-life imagery and bold colors that reflect the youth culture of the 1960s, Pippurikera is a blossoming standard of Annika Rimala's iconic work. -Pattern designed by Annika Rimala; 1963 -100% cotton sateen -300-thread-count -Machine wash cold -Made in Pakistan

Faded

"I bought the King duvet with shams first and loved the pattern and color. It went perfectly in my room. However the color faded after a few months of washing. No I do not use a bleach product. I purchased the sheet set later since it is pricey and couldn't afford to buy everything at once and that's when I noticed the huge difference in color. The new sheets were a totally different color than the duvet and shams. It was obvious that the colors are not color-safe. This product was expensive and this is not the first time a textile from Crate and Barrel did not meet up to my expectations."

Great colors

"Looks great, easy to wash. I love that it's reversible- you can freshen the look without buying a new cover.
Love it!
Not only do I love the product, but the original package never arrived at my residence (it's believed to have been stolen). Crate and Barrel quickly shipped another one without question.
Best customer service I've encountered in a long time."

diasappointed

"We bought these sheets in a Queen size. We had to return the first one because it fit like a king size. Bought another one, and it was the worst fitting sheets I ever had. Also, after we washed them as instructed, they felt rough and have balls of threads all over them. Very surprised at crate and barrel for carrying such a poorly made product"

Beautiful

"If you want something light and airy without going too pale or buying a floral, this is perfect. The fabric is very nice and the large print looks great on my king size bed -- smaller prints can look busy IMO. Note. In my room, the sage takes on a khaki tone and the duvet appeared to be too big at first. I went ahead and put it on my comforter anyway snd I'm glad i did because it wasn't too big after all. If you are looking for a grey tone, this is not grey sage. It's beautiful, however, and great quality."

Love the pattern, but not the quality.

"I bought this product online without seeing it in the store first. The color and print were great, and true to the photos above... but it just was not as comfortable as I had hoped it would be. The fabric is a little stiff and isn't soft as it might appear to be."

Love the sheets

"I purchased the Marimekko Pippurikera sheets for a queen size mattress with a pillow top. The quality was far better than I expected. They actually feel silky but don't make nits. The coverage over the mattress was better than most for deep mattresses and then some. I'm saving to purchase the Duvet cover. These were well worth the cost and I would recommend dealing with Crate and Barrel."

Nice but doesn't fit

"This set is really nice - but the duvet cover is a larger than the duvet that Crate and Barrel sells, even after washing a few times."

Simply Satisfied

"I purchased this duvet cover to outfit the bed in my Bed and Breakfast. Not only is it beautiful and very complimentary to the room, but the fabric is also very soft to the touch. This duvet makes the bed very inviting. Every guest I accommodate comments on the comfort of this item and inquiries on where to find it. Crate and Barrel is always the first place I turn to for great quality and comfort."

Great purchase!

"Purchased the queen comforter and shams for a guest bedroom and it looks great! Love the colors. Quality is nice and the fact that it is reversible is a plus! Only thing I wish I could find are the green pillows shown in the picture...but overall great purchase!"

Great customer service

"I bought this comforter in march and love it. I decided to wash it this weekend and followed the directions of machine wash in cold. Unfortunately the material got stuck in the machine and shredded a good portion and the inside batting became lumpy in areas. I emailed customer service letting them know that the instructions for washing didn't work out so well and I just received an email stating they are shipping me a new one-cost free (and to have a large size professionally laundered!)!!! The customer service is great and I love this comforter so much I probably would have bought another one anyway! Great job CB!"

Bad Print

"This comforter was not printed well. One side had the circles ending at the edge of the comforter and the other side did not match. More thought needs to put into the printing so that when the comforter is on the bed that both sides match."

Love this comforter

"I love the color and design of this entire bedding collection but especially that it was available as comforter and duvet. I got the comforter and love it. I also got the sheets as well as the matching sage quilt and Euro sham. Our newly designed room looks like it is out of a catalog. Very happy with the quality. Highly recommend."

Amazing Comforter

"I absolutely love this comforter. It looks perfect on my queen size bed. A very unique style. And I actually like the color, which is more sage than gold. It gives my room a very subtle charm. Did I mention how comfortable and soft it is? Sometimes I just wrap myself in it sans sheets. Love!!!"

You will love this..

"Comforters are difficult to find in retro or vintage patterns, so I was very excited to see this Marimekko design offered at Crate & Barrel. I purchased the King size comforter and pillow shams and am so happy with the size, texture and quality of the set. The color is very close to how it appears on the website. You will not be disappointed."

Sage Duvet

"So far, really liking this duvet. I love that it's reversible (so the background can be white or sage and the flowers/circles is the other). I also bought solid sage pillow shams to mix it up a bit and not have everything the same print and I really like the two things together. Might buy the sage lamps for our end tables and we'll have the complete look!"
