Country Wilds Blossom Meadow Floral Polyester Cushion - Sky Blue

The Country Wilds Blossom Meadow cushion is a hand-painted floral print set against a soft sky-blue ground, worked as a rising meadow that fills the lower half of the face and thins out towards the top. Look closely and there is more going on than flowers: a butterfly, a bumblebee and a ladybird are painted in among the daisies and blooms, so the design rewards a second glance rather than reading as one flat pattern. It is a rectangular cushion measuring 30 x 50cm, a bolster-style lumbar shape rather than a square, made from 100% polyester woven fabric.

The lumbar proportion is the reason to choose this one. A 30 x 50cm rectangle sits along the back of a sofa or an armchair to support the small of your back, and it layers in front of larger square cushions rather than competing with them. The sky-blue ground and the warm rust piping make it an easy companion to neutral linen upholstery and to other floral and wildlife prints in the same range, which is exactly how it is shown here, propped against plain cushions on a pale sofa. It suits a living room or a bedroom that wants a little colour and a natural, countryside feel.

The face carries the printed meadow; the reverse is a plain warm rust chenille-look fabric, and a contrast rust piped edge runs right around the seam to frame the print and hold its shape. A zip closure along one edge lets you take the cover off the pad. Polyester is a hard-wearing, colour-fast fibre that holds a printed design well and resists fading, which matters on a piece meant to be handled and leant on daily. Style it as the front layer of a cushion arrangement, letting the print sit forward where the detail can be seen.

Is the floral print on both sides of the cushion?

No. The meadow print is on the front face only, and the reverse is a plain warm rust fabric, so you can turn it either way.

What size is this cushion and what is it best used for?

It measures 30 x 50cm, a rectangular lumbar shape that works well as back support on a sofa or armchair and layers in front of larger square cushions.

Does the cover come off for cleaning?

Yes, there is a zip closure along one edge, so the cover lifts off the inner pad when you need to.

What is the cushion made from?

The cover is 100% woven polyester, a hard-wearing, colour-fast fibre that holds a printed design well and resists fading with everyday use.

Will it suit a neutral sofa?

Yes. The sky-blue ground and rust piping sit easily against cream or linen upholstery, and it pairs with other floral and wildlife prints in the same range.
