Hey thanks for taking a look at this. I am looking for pictures from
Neiman Marcus catalogs from 2000 and 2001, in both of those years they
sold a bedding set that looked very Moroccan. Each years set was
different than the other but similar in style. Both sets were very
rich in color and had many different colors and designs going. I
think each of the pillows matched one of the colors and patterns on
the bed spread. The colors were very rich green, blue, red, yellow or
gold, and may be even had some pink. The duvet may have been silk.
My memory is kind of vague but I would know it if I saw it. The years
could possibly be 1999 and 2000.
Thanks!
Will |

Hello Will,
Do us researchers a favor. Have a look at the links below, and tell
us how similar (or unsimilar) these beddings are from what you are
looking for. It's a real challenge sometimes using words to descibe a
"look", but it's just as hard (maybe harder) looking for something
without that many words to go on.

The more detail you can provide, the better.
Thanks.

Hi Will,
While researching your question, I contacted Neiman Marcus and
recieved a reply from them. Unfortunately, they currently do not carry
that exact merchandise. They have, however, given me two alternatives
to the request. Let me know what you decide. Thanks.
Regards,
rainbow

Sorry about getting back to you all so late. It took me a while to
figure out how to reply.
This reply is for pafalafa. I looked at the links you provided. The
second one is more along the lines of what I was thinking. However,
if memory serves me correctly then I would say that it did not
resemble a quilt and more along the lines of different patterns.
Also, I recall the colors being sharper, Also, I am 99.9% sure that
the sets were duvets and not bedspreads. I may be totally off the
mark. But number 2 is along the lines of what I was looking for. They
may have even been featured in the Christmas catalogs.

This response is for bcguide. Thank you for your response but no that
is not it. It is has not been offered for well over a year and a
half. The colors are more or less right however the green is think
was more on the blue scale than the browny olive shown there.

This response is for Rainbow. Thank you for looking in to this. I am
aware that the items I am looking for are no longer available. The
reason I want the photographs is that I am in the midst of deocrating
my home and want to have those for my designer to work with. If and
when we find the product I will be very willing to pay an additional
100 for whoever can find out the manufacturer and see if the cloth is
still available.

Hi Will,
I've contacted Neiman Marcus again and asked for any information they
have regarding this manufacturer. However, it being a weekend, I doubt
I will hear back from them before Monday. If and when I do receive a
response, I will post it here.
Best regards,
rainbow

For Rainbow. The product you showed is not the one I am interested
in. And before we contact them I would like to make sure we have the
correct product!

Hello Will,
Forgive me for any misunderstanding, but I have not shown you any
product so far. I have asked for information regarding the
manufacturer of the style you described in your question.

Hello again Will. As chance would have it, I found myself in the mall
where our local (Washington DC) Neiman-Marcus resides, and I had a
little free time, so I mosied over to the Customer Service desk. Lo
and behold, they had a collection of all their catalogs going back
several years.
I looked through them for linens and, to tell the truth, there are so
many that might possibly be the ones you're looking for, that I didn't
settle on a particular one as the most likely.
However, I just wanted to let you know of this option. If you're near
a N-M, stop by and look at their "library" for yourself.
Good luck.

Response for pafalafa-ga.
Thanks for taking the time for checking with Neiman Marcus while at
the mall. You know I contacted them at the headquarters in Dallas and
they said they had none that is why I chose this avenue. As chance
would have it I am off to Houston on Saturday and will check with
their customer service deptartment to see if they may have so old
catalogs there. I hope they do. If so I will remember who gave me
the tip and returen the tip! haha! Hopefully it will yield
something!

For pafalafa-ga
The customer service department in Houston told me that they had no
old catalogs available to look at. So basically I am still at the
same place I was....frusterated!

Ooooh! Heartbreaker!
Guess you'll just have to move to DC (I would wait until the snow melts, though).
