I have to say, I am thrilled with this product. I was going to buy an identical one from Restoration Hardware to go with my new bedding, and they wanted $79 for it - and Pottery Barn wanted $115 - and this item is exactly the same and I paid under $30 for it from Amazon. I had a little trouble when I first put it on the box spring - it was WAY too big which was bizarre because I figured - a king size bed is a king size bed, right? Well my husband had the idea to wash it in hot water and dry it (it's 100% cotton so it shrank) and now it fits perfectly. I couldn't be happier.Click Here to see more reviews about: Pinzon Matelasse Boxspring Cover

History of the Region
Portugal's major textile factories are located in Guimaraes. Guimaraes is known as the "cradle" or "birth city" of Portugal, since it is home to the castle of Portugal's first king. As one of the country's most historic cities with well-preserved monuments, it is a popular tourist attraction. Among other sites to see are two squares with outdoor cafes and balconied houses, called Praça de Santiago and Largo da Oliveira. At Largo da Oliveira are the old Town Hall and the Church of Nossa Senhora da Oliveira, with a Gothic shrine erected in 1340 standing before it. There are many legends about its origins, but a popular story says it marks the spot where Wamba, elected king of the Visigoths, refused his title and drove a pole into the ground swearing that he would not reign until it blossomed, and it sprouted immediately. Guimaraes hosts an annual 3-day festival of medieval art and costume in the first week of August, which dates from the middle of the 15th century and includes a torchlight procession and a medieval parade. Not only renowned for textiles and historical sites, Guimaraes is in the heart of the "Vinho Verde" region, so called for its locally produced fresh, young "green wines."
