Description
The Archie cushion carries an all-over abstract design worked in soft, fluffy tufts of cotton that wind and loop across its face. On this Mono version the tufts are a warm off-white, raised in relief against a deep near-black ground, so the pattern is something you feel as much as see. It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that most cushion pads are made to fit, and it is made from an 85% cotton, 15% polyester fabric blend. That mix gives you the soft handle and breathability of cotton with a little added polyester for durability and shape retention over time.
A square cushion of this size is the workhorse of a sofa or bed, and this one earns its place by adding texture rather than just colour. The tufted line work reads as a graphic, almost hand-drawn motif, which makes it a good foil for plainer weaves and flat-woven throws. Set it against a linen sofa, layer it with smaller lumbar cushions, or stand it alone on an armchair where the raised pile catches the light. The Mono palette sits easily in a monochrome or neutral scheme, and it pairs just as well with bolder shades if you want the pattern to do the talking.
The face is finished with a plain cotton reverse, a knife edge trim and a zip fastening, so the cover comes off cleanly when you need to refresh it. The zip closure means you can remove and replace the pad without fuss. Being a cotton-rich blend, it responds well to gentle care and will soften pleasingly with use. Archie comes in several contrasting colourways, so if the Mono is a touch understated for a particular room, there is a brighter option in the same tufted design to choose from.

Frequently Asked
What size cushion pad does this take?
The cover measures 45 x 45cm, which is the standard square size, so a 45cm pad gives it a full, well-filled shape.
What is the cushion made from?
It is an 85% cotton, 15% polyester blend, with the raised pattern tufted in cotton for a soft, fluffy texture against a smoother woven ground.
Can I take the cover off?
Yes, there is a zip fastening along one edge, so you can remove the cover from the pad whenever you want to freshen things up.
Is the back patterned too?
No, the reverse is a plain cotton in the same base tone, so the tufted abstract design sits only on the front face.
Will the tufted pattern flatten over time?
The tufts are worked in cotton and stand proud of the surface. Treat them gently and they hold their raised, textural feel with everyday use.
