Haze Plain Velvet Cushion - Quartz

The Haze cushion is a plain velvet cushion in a soft quartz tone, a warm greige that sits between stone and pale mushroom. It measures 40 x 60cm, the elongated rectangle that sits behind square cushions on a bed or a wide sofa to draw the eye down and give a layered arrangement its depth. The front is worked in a quilted velvet with a fine ribbed texture running across it, caught at intervals by small stitched points that give the pile its gentle rippled surface.

A cushion this size and shape earns its place as a supporting piece rather than a centrepiece. Set it in front of a pair of larger square cushions on a made bed, or lay it along the back of a sofa where its length fills the width without crowding. The quartz colour is a genuine neutral, so it settles easily against creams, warm greys and natural linens, and it keeps company just as well with deeper earthy tones when you want a little contrast. The velvet catches the light differently as you move past it, which keeps a plain colour from ever reading flat.

The front and back are both polyester velvet, a fabric chosen for its soft handle and its resistance to the wear a cushion takes from daily use. The back carries an envelope-style overlap, visible in the photograph, so the cover slips off the pad for cleaning without any fuss. The quilted face is the detail that sets this piece apart from a plain velvet cover, the stitched channels giving structure and a quiet play of shadow across an otherwise unbroken surface. It is a cushion that does its work by texture rather than pattern, which is what makes it so easy to live with.

What is this cushion made of?

Both the front and the back are polyester velvet, giving it a soft handle and a surface that stands up well to everyday use on a bed or sofa.

How big is the Haze cushion?

It measures 40 by 60 centimetres, an oblong rectangle rather than a square, made to layer in front of larger cushions or run along the back of a seat.

Does the cover come off?

Yes, the back has an envelope-style opening where one panel overlaps the other, so you can slip the cover off the inner pad when you need to.

Will quartz go with my existing furnishings?

Quartz is a warm neutral greige, so it works comfortably alongside creams, natural linens, warm greys and deeper earthy shades without clashing.

What is the textured effect on the front?

The front is quilted, with fine stitched channels and small caught points that give the velvet a gently rippled, ridged surface you can see and feel.
