Christian Fischbacher Bedspreads – Swiss Elegance for Bed and Sofa

A bedspread turns a bed into a designed piece of furniture. In the morning it transforms the bedroom into a tidy, inviting space – and in the living room it becomes a cosy companion on the sofa in the evening. Christian Fischbacher is one of the very few houses that serve this dual function at the highest craft level: every bedspread from St. Gallen is at the same time a premium throw and a stylish bedroom statement.

What a good bedspread achieves

Bedspreads are an underestimated element of bedroom design. They have several functions at once that become noticeable in everyday life:

• Visual statement: a made bed with a fine bedspread is the visual anchor of the bedroom
• Quick tidying: when time is short, a single motion suffices – underneath, the bed may occasionally be untidy
• Hygiene protection: the bed linen is protected from dust, hair and soiling during the day
• Fresh sleeping feeling: getting into a “freshly made bed” in the evening is a small daily treat
• Dual function as a throw: cosily warm and snug – ideal for cosy evenings on the sofa

Anyone who has once had a high-quality bedspread in the bedroom rarely wants to go back to everyday life without one. And anyone who takes the blanket into the living room as a throw in the evening has two premium items in one.

Material qualities of the Christian Fischbacher bedspreads

The collection comprises several natural materials – each with its own character, its own warmth profile and its own feel. Which choice is the right one depends on the desired warmth performance and the intended use.

Cashmere

Cashmere is the most luxurious choice among the bedspread materials. The fibre comes from the undercoat of the cashmere goat and is exceptionally fine – silky, warm, with a soft sheen. A cashmere blanket is astonishingly light, yet reliably keeps you warm. Anyone seeking the absolute premium experience will find it here.

Alpaca

Alpaca throws are among the softest natural fibres of all – even gentler on the skin than new wool, with excellent warmth regulation. The fibre is also temperature-balancing, which makes alpaca blankets true all-year companions. Ideal for snuggling up on the sofa and a highlight at the foot of the bed.

Wool

New-wool bedspreads are particularly warm and comfortable – the classic choice for cold winter months. The natural fibre brings an unmistakable, slightly textured character and a pleasant heaviness that is immediately noticeable when you snuggle into it.

Cotton

Cotton bedspreads are the lighter, more summery variant. They are elegant, versatile to combine and breathable – ideal for the warmer season or for anyone who values a bedspread above all as a visual element, without wishing for additional warmth in bed. The “Lago Maxi” quality is a proven example here as a light summer throw.

Which size do I need?

The right size depends on the bed dimensions. Basic rule: a bedspread should always be somewhat larger than the bed, so that it drapes elegantly over the sides and the foot end. The following sizes have proved their worth:

• Single bed (90x200 cm): bedspread 140x200 cm
• Queen size (140x200 cm): 170x210 cm or 160x230 cm
• King size (180x200 cm): 220x240 cm
• Double bed (200x200 or 200x220 cm): 220x240 cm
• Double bed XL (220x240 cm): 275x265 cm

Should your desired size not be found in the online shop, please feel free to contact us. Special sizes are among the specialities of the house at Christian Fischbacher, and we will draw up an individual, no-obligation quotation for you.

Designs and motifs

The design range of the Christian Fischbacher bedspreads is considerable: from puristically plain via classic check and houndstooth designs to characterful, artfully patterned models with floral or graphic elements. Thus every furnishing style finds the right model – whether for an understatedly elegant bedroom or for a deliberate design accent. A bedspread can restage the entire bedroom in a single motion.

Care of your Christian Fischbacher bedspread

Care depends greatly on the material – natural-hair fibres such as cashmere, alpaca and wool are more demanding than cotton:

• Cashmere and alpaca: ideally professional cleaning at a laundry specialising in natural hair; for minor soiling, treat carefully with wool detergent on the wool wash programme at 30 degrees, never in the tumble dryer
• New wool: wool wash programme at 30 degrees with a special wool detergent, dry flat, never in the tumble dryer
• Cotton: generally washable at 30 to 40 degrees, higher for some qualities – always observe the care label
• in general: air it regularly, this often replaces washing
• no fabric softener for natural-hair fibres – it impairs the natural fibre structure
• avoid direct sunlight when drying, especially for coloured models

With good care, high-quality bedspreads are heirlooms – they last for decades and become true favourites over time.

Bedspread and throw in one

A Christian Fischbacher bedspread is at the same time a fully-fledged throw – this is one of the finest qualities of the collection. During the day it lies elegantly on the bed, in the evening it moves into the living room onto the sofa. Anyone wishing to bring the throw aspect to the fore will find, in addition, at Cosy blankets and throws further models of other premium brands in comparison.

Designing the bedroom completely

A bedspread unfolds its full effect in combination with the matching bed equipment:

• Bed Linen – our entire range for the matching set underneath
• Fitted Sheets in colour-matched tones
• Duvets with down, eiderdown, silk or natural hair
• Pillows in various fillings and firmness grades

Further premium brands for bedspreads and throws

Christian Fischbacher is one of several Swiss and German premium brands that play in the same craft league. Schlossberg is the most direct relative – likewise a Swiss family business, with bedspreads, throws and cushions from a single house. Graser from Bavaria makes classic bedspreads in its own design tradition. Weseta Switzerland complements the range with home blankets in Swiss manufactory quality, and Dorbena is the Swiss benchmark for high-quality bedding with natural-hair and down fillings.
