Fruits Piped Polyester Cushion - Lemon/Lime

This is a printed outdoor cushion in the Fruits range, measuring 45 x 45cm and made from 100% polyester. The face carries a heritage fruit design of pomegranates and citrus fruit set among leafy branches, worked in soft green, apricot, amber and lilac against a cream ground. The reverse is a plain warm yellow, and a piped trim runs around all four edges to define the shape and hold it crisply square. A zip along one side lets you slip the cover on and off, so the pad and the cover can be handled separately.

Because it is treated for outdoor use, this cushion belongs on a garden bench, a woven patio chair or a bistro seat, and it will sit just as happily indoors on a sofa or reading chair. The busy botanical face works against painted brick, timber and greenery, while the plain piped reverse gives you a quieter side to turn outward when you want less pattern. Stack it with the other colourways in the range for a layered look, or use a single cushion to lift a bare seat. The square 45 x 45cm size is the standard scatter size, so it will pair with cushions you already own.

The cover is polyester throughout, which is the reason it copes with a spell outside: the fibre sheds water rather than soaking it up and holds its printed colour well in daylight. The piped edge is a sewn-in trim that keeps the corners full, and the zip closure means the cover comes away for cleaning without a fight. When you bring it in for winter, store it somewhere dry so it is ready for the next warm afternoon. Style it with the plain yellow reverse showing for a calmer scheme, or lead with the fruit print when you want the seating area to feel planted and full.

Can this cushion stay outside?

Yes, the fabric is treated for outdoor use and is water resistant, so it copes with a garden seat, though we would still bring it in during heavy or prolonged wet weather.

What is the cover made from?

It is 100% polyester, a fibre that sheds water rather than absorbing it and holds its printed colour well, which is why it suits outdoor seating.

How big is it?

The cushion measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square scatter size, so it will sit comfortably alongside most cushions you already own on a sofa or bench.

Does the cover come off?

Yes, there is an easy to use zip along one side, so you can take the cover away from the pad and handle the two separately when you need to.

Is it patterned on both sides?

No, the fruit design is on the front and the reverse is a plain warm yellow, so you can turn the quieter side outward when you want less pattern on show.
