Cabu Reversible Wool Cushion - Ginger

The Cabu is a boucle cushion in a warm ginger tone, covered on both faces in a chunky, curled, sheepskin-look pile. It comes in two square sizes, 45 x 45cm and 55 x 55cm, so you can pick the scale that suits your seating. The cover is made from 100% polyester worked into a dense, textured boucle, which is what gives the surface its tight loops and soft, shearling-like hand. Being fully synthetic, the pile holds its shape, resists creasing and keeps its colour through use, which is why boucle of this kind wears well on cushions that get leaned on and moved around daily.

It is built for layering rather than standing alone. On a linen sofa or a pale armchair the ginger reads as a warm, muted rust against neutral upholstery, and it sits happily beside plainer weaves and the deeper and lighter tones in the same range. Drop it into a reading corner, along the back of a bench, or across a bed for a bit of extra texture. The tactile, curled surface does most of the work here, so it earns its place in a room built on calm, understated colour rather than pattern.

The design is reversible, so both sides carry the same boucle face and there is no right or wrong way to sit it. A simple knife-edged border keeps the outline clean, and a zip fastening runs along one edge so the cover can be taken off. The pile is deep and springy, as the close-up and the side profile both show, giving the cushion a plump, rounded shape rather than a flat square. Pair it with a couple of the other muted shades in the range to build up depth across a sofa or bed.

Is this cushion actually made of wool?

No, the cover is 100% polyester worked into a boucle with a soft, shearling-like feel. It is a wool-look finish rather than real wool, so it is fully synthetic throughout.

Which size should I choose?

It comes in 45 x 45cm and 55 x 55cm. The smaller size suits armchairs and layering at the front, while the larger works well as a back cushion on a wider sofa or bed.

Can I take the cover off?

Yes, there is a zip fastening along one edge, so the cover can be removed from the pad whenever you need to.

Does it matter which way round I use it?

No, the design is reversible with the same boucle face on both sides, so either side can face outward without any difference in appearance.

Will it work with other colours in the range?

Yes, the ginger is a warm, muted tone that layers easily with the grey, cream, charcoal and green boucle cushions in the same range for a mixed, textured look.
