Description

The Contra cushion is a plain velvet oblong measuring 40 x 60cm, with an olive-green velvet face and a linen-look reverse in a neutral oatmeal tone. It is made from 100% polyester, so the pile is soft to the touch and holds its colour rather than fading the way some natural fibres can. The two faces give you a choice: the deep velvet side for warmth and light-catching depth, and the flatter woven-look side when you want something quieter.

At 40 x 60cm this is a bolster-width oblong rather than a square, which makes it well suited to the front of a bed, where it sits comfortably against sleeping pillows, or propped in the corner of a sofa or armchair to support the lower back. The olive velvet reads as a warm, muted green and works alongside other textured cushions, so you can layer it with linens, wools and knits for depth. Turned to its reverse, it grounds a busier arrangement and lets a patterned cushion beside it do the talking.

The cover is finished with standard edging and a hidden zip closure, so the fastening stays out of sight and the cover comes off cleanly for cleaning. Being 100% polyester, it is shrink resistant, which is a genuine advantage in a cushion cover that will be washed and reshaped repeatedly. Use the velvet side out to add a single note of colour to a neutral room, or turn it reverse-out and let it recede. The cover is available in more than one colourway if you want to build a set across a bed or seating group.

Frequently Asked

Is this cushion the same on both sides?

No. One face is olive-green velvet with a soft pile, and the reverse is a flatter linen-look weave in a neutral tone, so you can turn it to suit the room.

What size is the cushion and what shape?

It is an oblong measuring 40 x 60cm, a bolster width rather than a square, which suits the front of a bed or the corner of a sofa.

What is the cover made from?

The cover is 100% polyester, which makes the velvet pile soft to the touch and keeps the cover shrink resistant when it is cleaned and reshaped.

How does the cover come off?

There is a hidden zip closure along one edge, so the fastening stays out of view and the cover slips off cleanly from the pad inside.

What colour is the velvet side?

The velvet face is a warm, muted olive green, and the reverse is a pale oatmeal neutral, so it layers easily with other textured cushions.
