Description
The Evoke velvet cushion carries a geometric chevron pattern worked in cut velvet, so the design is built from the pile itself rather than printed on. Across the beige face, raised velvet lines run into converging chevrons, catching the light at a different angle from the flatter ground around them. Fine gold threads trace the channels between the raised lines, and the whole cover is made from 100% polyester velvet. This first size measures 45 x 45cm square, with a larger 55 x 55cm version in the same range for those who want a bigger anchor on a sofa.
A 45cm square is the everyday cushion size, and it earns its place on a two or three-seat sofa, an armchair or the head of a bed. The tonal beige and soft gold sit quietly against most upholstery, so it layers with plain cushions or with a bolder print without fighting for attention. The cut-velvet texture does the work here rather than loud colour, which makes it a good choice if you want depth and interest in a neutral scheme. Angle it so the light rakes across the chevrons and the pattern reads more strongly.
Velvet has a directional pile, so brushing the surface one way lifts the colour and the other way deepens it, which is worth knowing when you plump and place it. The reverse is plain velvet, and a zip closure runs along one edge so the cover comes off the pad easily for cleaning or replacement. Being polyester throughout, the pile holds its shape and resists crushing better than many natural fibres. Pair it with the 55 x 55cm size for a graduated arrangement, or keep it as a single accent where the geometry can be read on its own.

Frequently Asked
What does cut velvet mean on this cushion?
Cut velvet has areas of pile trimmed to different heights, so the chevron pattern here is formed by the raised and flatter velvet rather than by any print.
What is the cushion made from?
The cover is 100% polyester velvet, including the plain velvet reverse, which gives a soft pile that holds its shape well and resists crushing over time.
Does the cover come off for cleaning?
Yes, there is a zip closure along one edge, so you can remove the cover from the pad for cleaning or to replace the inner when needed.
What sizes does this cushion come in?
This listing is the 45 x 45cm square, and the same Evoke range also offers a larger 55 x 55cm version if you want a bigger cushion.
Will the colour look uniform across the surface?
Velvet has a directional pile, so the beige will read lighter or deeper depending on the angle and how the light falls, which is normal for the fabric.
Is a cushion pad included?
The record does not state whether a pad is supplied, so please check the size you need before ordering to ensure it fills the cover properly.
