Description
This is the Boucle Knot cushion, a soft polyester form tied into a single sculpted knot rather than the flat square you might expect from a cushion. The whole piece is one continuous tube of bouclé, looped and pulled through itself so that it reads as a rounded ball of curves. The fabric is a shearling-feel fleece with the small looped pile that gives bouclé its name, and in this Ecru shade it sits as a soft off-white cream. It measures 30x30cm, which puts it firmly in the small, accent end of the cushion range rather than something you would prop yourself against for support.
A knot cushion earns its place as a texture piece more than a functional pillow. It looks at home tucked into the corner of a sofa, set at the head of a made bed, or resting on the seat of an armchair or a rattan chair, where its rounded shape breaks up the straight lines of the frame. Because it is a plain, undyed cream, it works alongside patterned cushions and throws without competing with them, and it suits the calmer, contemporary interiors where texture does the talking instead of colour. The looped fleece catches light softly, so it holds its own even against a neutral wall.
The cushion is made from 100% polyester, inside and out. Polyester is hard-wearing and holds its shape well through daily use, and it resists the fading and creasing that can trouble natural fibres, which is part of why this form keeps its sculpted look. As a plain, modern shape it pairs easily with more ornate patterns, and it comes in a spread of shades, so if the Ecru is not quite your room you have other options across the same shape. Style it as a single point of soft texture, or group two or three shades together for a fuller, layered look.
