{"product_id":"bardot-geometric-velvet-cushion-pink-avo-green","title":"Bardot Geometric Velvet Cushion - Pink\/Avo Green","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Bardot cushion carries a cut-velvet geometric design across its face: a grid of half-circles and blocks set in slate blue, navy, dusty pink, cream and avocado green. Cut velvet means the pile is worked at two heights, so the pattern reads as much through the play of light on the surface as through the colour, and the shapes shift a little as you move past them. The face is 100% polyester velvet, and the reverse is a plain soft velvet in a muted teal, finished with a hidden zip along one edge. The cover measures 50 x 50cm, a standard square that takes a common pad size and works in a group or on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA square this size sits well at the corner of a sofa, propped against the arm, or in a pair at either end of a bed. The mix of pinks and greens against the darker blues gives it a retro, mid-century feel, so it suits a living room where you already have some pattern or colour to play against rather than a strictly neutral scheme. Set it on a boucle or plain linen sofa and the velvet pile does the work; the cushion is the point of interest rather than a quiet filler.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cover is made from 100% polyester, which is hard-wearing and holds its colour well, and the cut-velvet pile keeps its depth through everyday use. A knife edge gives it clean, flat seams rather than a piped or flanged border, and the hidden zip keeps the closure out of sight so the pattern runs uninterrupted. Polyester velvet is easy to live with and resists creasing, which is part of why it suits a cushion that gets leaned on. The Bardot design comes in more than one colourway if you want to build up a set across a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Polyester\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGeometric cut-velvet face, plain velvet reverse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKnife edge, hidden zip closure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 x 50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size pad should I put in this cover?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cover measures 50 x 50cm, so a 50cm square pad fits it well.
