Cotton Double Bedspread Red Peacock Mandala Tapestry

The peacock is one of the most enduring motifs in South Asian decorative art, associated across Hindu and Mughal traditions with beauty, abundance, and the turning of seasons. Here it sits at the heart of a mandala, a geometric form whose radial symmetry has appeared in sacred and decorative contexts from India to medieval Europe. As a design language, the combination reads as both culturally rooted and visually contemporary: the kind of pattern that holds attention without demanding explanation.

The red ground gives the piece warmth and presence. In Indian textile tradition, red is a colour of celebration and vitality, and it reads well against natural wood, white linen, and earthy tones alike.

Made from a cotton and polyester blend, the fabric has the breathability of cotton with a little added resilience from the polyester. The blend keeps the textile relatively lightweight and easy to handle, straightforward to fold, move between rooms, or pack away between seasons.

Sized for a double bed.

As a bedspread, it layers well over plain white or cream bedding, letting the mandala pattern do the work. As a wall hanging, it suits a large blank wall in a living room, bedroom, or reading corner, lightweight enough to hang with a wooden dowel threaded through a folded top hem, or clipped with curtain rings to a picture rail. It also works as a sofa throw, a floor covering for a meditation or yoga space, or a picnic blanket in warmer months.

For a printed cotton-blend textile with a deep red ground, a gentle first wash in cool water with a mild detergent is advisable to check colour fastness. Do not wring. Dry flat or in shade rather than in a tumble dryer. If ironing is needed, turn the textile face-down and use a moderate setting on the reverse of the print. Always follow the care label on the item itself.

Made in India, where printed cotton textiles have been produced for export and domestic use for centuries. Block-printing and screen-printing traditions from Rajasthan and Gujarat in particular have shaped the global market for mandala and geometric-motif bedspreads, this piece sits within that long lineage of Indian decorative textile craft.

One bedspread, sized for a double bed. Weight approximately 600 g.

A good choice for someone moving into a new home, a student furnishing a room on a budget, or anyone who likes to shift the mood of a space with a single textile. The bold red and the mandala motif make it a gift that feels considered rather than generic.
