Brunch Stripes Reversible Polyester Cushion - Multi

The Brunch Stripes cushion is a reversible outdoor cushion that gives you two looks in one. One face carries a hand-painted lobster set inside a scalloped border, framed by sunny yellow-and-white stripes; turn it over and you get a bolder blue-and-pink wide stripe. It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that most scatter cushion covers and inserts are built around, so replacements and coordinating pieces are easy to find. It is made from 100% polyester, chosen here for outdoor use because the fibre does not soak up water the way natural fibres do.

This is a cushion built for the garden, the balcony or a covered porch. It sits happily on rattan, timber or metal seating, and the double-sided design means you can flip it to suit your mood or the rest of your scheme without buying a second cushion. The playful lobster face brings a coastal note to a garden sofa or a bench by the back door, while the plain wide stripe reverse settles in with more restrained outdoor furniture. It works as well for a garden lunch as it does left out through an ordinary British summer afternoon.

Polyester is a hard-wearing synthetic that resists fading and holds a printed pattern well, which is why the colour stays bright through a season outdoors. A zip closure runs along one edge, so the cover comes off the pad easily when you want to freshen it up. The water-resistant fabric means a passing shower will not ruin an afternoon, though we would still bring cushions in over winter to keep them at their best. Style it alongside other bright outdoor scatter cushions for a relaxed, informal look on a garden seating set.
