Halo Fringed Velvet Plain Polyester Cushion - Olive/Ginger

The Halo Fringed Velvet Cushion is a plain velvet square finished with a contrasting fringed trim, and it is the fringe that makes it. The body is a soft olive green velvet, framed on all four edges by a full ginger-toned fringe that stands proud of the face. That colour pairing does the work here: two warm tones set against each other so neither disappears, one deep and grassy, one bright and coppery. The cover measures 50 x 50cm, the standard square that most scatter cushions are cut to, so it slots in beside anything you already own without looking odd next to it.

This is a living room cushion first, the sort you scatter across a sofa or an armchair to add a bit of warmth and texture. The olive and ginger combination reads as autumnal and earthy, so it sits happily with woodgrain furniture, tan leather, and other warm colours rather than cool greys. Because it is a plain velvet with the interest carried by the trim rather than a print, it mixes easily with patterned cushions without fighting them, and a pair at either end of a three-seater balances the look. It works as readily in a bedroom, laid across the foot of the bed, as it does downstairs.

The velvet has a dense, plush pile that catches the light differently as you move past it, which is what gives a plain cushion its depth. The cover fastens with a concealed zip, so the closure sits out of sight along one edge and the cover comes off cleanly when you need it to. The fringe is a decorative trim rather than a functional one, and it runs the whole way around the border. Halo comes in several tonal combinations, so if this olive and ginger is not quite your room, there are other pairings in the range designed to mix and match with it.

What is the cover made of?

The cushion is velvet made from 100% polyester, which gives it a soft, dense pile that is hard-wearing and holds its colour well over time.

What size is this cushion?

It measures 50 x 50cm, the standard scatter cushion square, so it pairs easily with cushions and covers you may already own.

Does the cover come off?

Yes, there is a concealed zip along one edge, so the cover slides off the pad and sits out of sight when the cushion is in use.

Does the fringe go all the way around?

Yes, the contrasting ginger fringe runs around all four edges of the olive velvet face, framing the cushion on every side.

Will olive and ginger suit my room?

These are warm, earthy tones that sit well with wood, tan leather and other warm colours, and they mix comfortably with patterned cushions.
