Description
The Haze cushion is a velvet-faced rectangular cushion measuring 40 x 60cm, a long bolster-style proportion rather than the usual square. The face is worked in a closely quilted wave pattern, with fine running stitches pressed into the pile so the surface catches the light in soft ridges, while the reverse is a plain, smooth velvet with an envelope-style overlap. It is a quiet, textural piece that earns its place through feel and shape rather than a printed motif.
A 40 x 60cm rectangle is the shape to reach for when a row of square scatter cushions has started to look flat. Set one against the arm of a sofa for lumbar support, prop it at the head of a bed in front of your pillows, or lay a pair along a window seat or bench. The long format gives you somewhere to actually rest, so it suits a reading corner or a daybed as readily as a formal arrangement. The muted, dusky tone sits comfortably with warm neutrals, deeper browns and other velvet textures.
The cover is velvet front and back, a pile fabric that reads as soft and matt and shows its quilting well because the raised stitching breaks up the nap. The back opens so the cover can be taken off, which makes the cushion easier to keep fresh and lets you adjust the fill. Velvet holds its depth of colour and wears well with everyday use, though it responds best to gentle handling around the pile. Where a room needs texture and a little length rather than another square, this is the cushion that supplies it.

Frequently Asked
What is the cover made of?
Both the front and the back are polyester velvet, a pile fabric that feels soft and matt to the touch and takes colour deeply.
What size is this cushion?
It measures 40 x 60cm, a long rectangle rather than a square, which makes it well suited to lumbar support or lining up along a bench.
Does the cover come off?
Yes, the reverse has an envelope-style overlap opening, so the cover can be removed to keep it fresh and to adjust the filling inside.
Why choose a rectangular cushion over a square one?
The longer shape gives more to lean against and adds variety to an arrangement that has become a row of matching squares on a sofa or bed.
How should I look after the velvet?
Velvet keeps its look best with gentle handling around the pile, so smooth the nap back into place and avoid rough treatment that would crush it.
