Description
The Aurelio cushion is woven from chenille, a pile yarn that gives cloth its soft, slightly velvety hand and a subtle sheen that shifts as the light moves across it. The face carries an abstract jacquard pattern, worked into the weave itself rather than printed on top, so the design is part of the fabric and will not wear away with handling. The ground reads as a warm mink beige, with the pattern picked out in a paler tone that catches the light where the pile stands proud. It is a square cushion, finished with an oxford border, the flat flange of fabric that runs around all four sides and frames the face.
This sits well in a living room, on a sofa or a reading chair, and it is quiet enough to work in a bedroom too, layered against plainer pillows or a textured throw. The mink beige is a neutral that takes its cue from what surrounds it, so it settles happily beside creams, warm greys and other soft naturals rather than fighting them for attention. If you like a scheme built on tone and texture rather than strong colour, this is the sort of cushion that fills out a group without demanding the eye.
The face is chenille jacquard, which is what gives it both the pattern and the touch. A zip is set discreetly into one edge, so the cover comes off when you need it to and goes back on without fuss. The oxford border adds a tailored edge that stops the cushion looking loose or unshaped, and it holds its square line on a seat. Add one on its own for a little texture, or build a pair or a trio when you want the pattern to carry across a whole sofa.

Frequently Asked
What is chenille and how does it feel?
Chenille is a fabric woven from a soft, tufted pile yarn, which gives it a plush, slightly velvety surface and a gentle sheen that changes as the light moves.
Is the pattern printed or woven in?
The abstract design is a jacquard, meaning it is worked into the weave of the fabric itself rather than printed on the surface, so it will not fade or rub off with use.
Does the cover come off?
Yes, there is a zip set discreetly into one edge, so you can take the cover off the pad whenever you need to and slip it back on again easily.
What size is the cushion?
It is a square cushion measuring 45 by 45 centimetres, a common size that groups neatly with other cushions on a standard sofa or bed.
What colour is it and what does it suit?
It is a warm mink beige, a soft neutral that sits comfortably alongside creams, warm greys and other natural tones rather than competing with stronger colours.
What is the oxford border?
The oxford border is the flat flange of fabric running around all four sides of the cushion, which frames the woven face and gives it a tailored, defined edge.
