It can be challenging to find the exact piece you’re on the hunt for because there are so many options nowadays. The perfect final layer on your bed or favorite lounge chair could be the determining factor of your best sleep yet. While blankets provide cozy comfort, there are actually multiple variations of blankets that could provide exactly what you are looking for. Coverlets, commonly used as a layering piece, are sometimes confused with other layering pieces. Let’s take a look at the difference between coverlets and blankets. 

What is a Coverlet?

Coverlets are a plush, usually quilted layer that finishes off the bed. Unlike a comforter, it is not thick and heavy-filled, however it is a bit denser than a traditional blanket. Coverlets are used mostly as a decorative piece or an extra layer of warmth to use on top of your duvets, comforters, and sheets. 

Are Coverlets & Blankets the Same?

While both coverlets and blankets provide an additional thinner layer on the bed, they are normally used with different purposes. Blankets are a bit lighter and smaller in size depending on the size you choose. However, coverlets are a bit denser and usually more stylish with more structure.
