Archie Abstract Cotton Blend Cushion - Pink/Red

The Archie cushion carries an all-over tufted abstract design, with soft raised loops that wander and curl their way across the face in winding lines and looping arches. Ours is the pink and red version: a bright pink ground with the tufts worked in a contrasting red, so the pattern sits proud of the flat cloth and catches the light. The cushion measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that suits most sofas and beds, and it is made from an 85% cotton, 15% polyester blend. That mix gives you the soft, breathable hand of cotton with a little polyester worked in for durability, so the cloth holds its shape through everyday use.

This is a cushion for a room that wants some colour and some texture. It works on a sofa, in an armchair, or propped against pillows on a bed, and the raised tufts give it as much appeal to the hand as to the eye. The bright pink and red pairing is loud and cheerful rather than quiet, so it earns its place as the piece your eye goes to first. It sits happily against plainer cushions and neutral upholstery, where the tufted lines have room to read, and it groups well with other bright tones if you like a mix.

The face carries the tufted cotton pattern; the reverse is a plain cotton back, so you can turn it over for a calmer look if you wish. A knife edge trim keeps the seam neat and flat around all four sides, and a zip fastening runs along one edge so the cover comes off when you need it. Because the blend is largely cotton, treat it as you would any cotton cover and follow the care guidance on the label. Style it on its own for a single hit of colour, or layer it with the wider Archie designs for a bolder, mixed effect.

What is the cushion made from?

The cover is an 85% cotton and 15% polyester blend, which gives you a soft cotton feel with a little added polyester for durability and shape retention.

How big is it?

It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square size that works well on most sofas, armchairs and beds without looking oversized or lost.

What does the reverse look like?

The back is a plain cotton reverse with no tufting, so you can turn it over for a calmer, flat finish whenever you prefer.

Is the pattern raised?
