Description

The Bertie cushion is made from pure cotton, with an enzyme washed cotton velvet front that gives it a soft, faintly worn hand rather than a crisp new-velvet sheen. The face sits in a plain, pale grey-taupe with a gentle depth of pile, while a ruched, frayed edging runs right around the border, framing the panel and softening the outline. It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that fits the most common cushion pads and slips easily into a mixed arrangement.

This is a cushion for a relaxed, contemporary living space. The muted grey-taupe reads as a quiet neutral, so it sits happily on a sofa, an armchair or across the head of a bed without competing for attention, and it layers well against warmer browns and rusts or cooler greys. Because the tone is so soft, it works as the calm anchor in a stack of bolder textures, or as one of a pair for symmetry. On a wooden-framed chair or a boucle seat it earns its place by adding a smooth surface among rougher weaves.

Construction is straightforward and built to be used. The velvet front is backed by a plainer, more hard-wearing cotton reverse, which is the side that takes the daily leaning and shifting, and the cover closes with a zip so the pad comes out for cleaning. Being cotton throughout, it is a breathable, natural fibre that wears in gently over time. The frayed fringe is part of the character here, not a flaw, and it settles with use. If you like the look, Bertie gives you a single considered piece to build a scheme around.

Frequently Asked

What is the front of the Bertie cushion made from?

The front is enzyme washed cotton velvet, which gives a soft, lightly worn feel, while the reverse is a plainer, harder-wearing cotton for everyday use.

Does the cover come off for cleaning?

Yes, the cover closes with a zip fastening, so you can take the pad out when you need to and handle the cover on its own.

What size cushion pad does it take?

It is a 45 x 45cm square, which is the most common cushion size, so standard 45cm pads are the ones to look for.

Is the frayed edging meant to look like that?

Yes, the frayed, ruched fringe running around the border is part of the design, and it relaxes further and settles the more the cushion is used.

Will the pale grey-taupe colour suit my room?

It is a soft, muted neutral that sits quietly against warm browns and rusts as well as cooler greys, so it works as a calm layer in most schemes.
