Description
The Connie is a 45 x 45cm square cushion in a cream ground crossed by broad chocolate-brown stripes, finished all the way round with a gathered ruffle in the same striped cloth. It is made from an 85% polyester and 15% linen blend woven for a linen-look texture, so you get the slubby, natural surface of linen with the added durability that polyester brings to a cover in daily use. The stripe runs on both faces, which means there is no wrong side to hide when you plump and turn it.
This is a cushion for a relaxed, cottage-style room. It sits happily on a sofa, an armchair or across the foot of a bed, and the cream-and-brown palette works with natural upholstery, painted wood and warm neutral walls. Because both sides carry the same print, it layers easily with plainer cushions and reads well grouped or on its own. The frilled edge softens a hard-lined sofa and adds a little vintage character without dominating the rest of the room.
The cover fastens with a concealed zip, so the pad slips in and out cleanly and the closure stays hidden behind the ruffle. That zip also makes the cover simple to remove and wash. The polyester-heavy blend holds its shape and resists creasing more readily than pure linen would, which is worth knowing if you want a cushion that looks tidy between washes. Style it against a linen sofa for a soft, tonal look, or set it beside a bolder colour to let the stripe do the talking. This chocolate colourway is one of several in the same design.

Frequently Asked
Is this cushion actually made of linen?
It is a linen-look blend, 85% polyester and 15% linen, woven to give the natural texture of linen with the durability polyester adds for everyday use.
Does the stripe run on both sides?
Yes. The printed stripe appears on both faces of the cushion, so you can plump and turn it without ever showing a plain reverse.
Can I remove the cover to wash it?
Yes. There is a concealed zip closure tucked behind the ruffle, so the cover comes off easily and the pad slips back in cleanly afterwards.
How big is the cushion?
It is a square 45 x 45cm, a standard scatter-cushion size that suits a sofa, an armchair or the foot of a bed.
What colour is the cushion in this option?
This is the chocolate colourway, a cream ground with broad dark-brown stripes and a ruffle trim in the same striped cloth all the way round.
