Heavy Chenille Eyelet Velvet Cushion - Brown

This is a plain, filled cushion in a heavy chenille velvet, made up in a warm mid-brown that reads slightly lighter where the pile catches the light. It measures 50 x 50cm, the standard large square that most sofa and armchair scatter cushions are cut to, so it sits comfortably alongside cushions you may already own. The face is a dense, short-pile chenille with the soft, faintly brushed handle you would expect from a woven velvet, and a piped trim runs around all four edges to give the seam a defined, tailored line.

A plain brown cushion of this weight earns its place on a sofa, a reading chair or the end of a bed, where it adds depth without competing with a pattern. The earthy tone works with natural textures such as jute, oak and cream weaves, and it holds its own beside a more decorative cushion when you want one calm piece in a group. Because the colour is muted rather than bright, it settles into a neutral or modern scheme rather than drawing the eye to itself, which makes it an easy piece to buy more than one of.

The cover is a reversible design, so both faces are the same chenille and you can turn it to even out wear or simply to freshen the look. A hidden zip fastening runs along one edge, keeping the closure out of sight and letting you remove the cover when you need to. The trim is piped, which is what holds the square shape crisp at the corners. It is made from polyester throughout, a hard-wearing fibre that resists everyday knocks and keeps its shape with regular plumping. Pair it with the matching Heavy Chenille eyelet curtains for a co-ordinated, relaxed finish across a room.

Is the cushion cover removable?

Yes, there is a hidden zip along one edge, so you can take the cover off the pad whenever you need to without a visible closure spoiling the front.

What does chenille velvet feel like?

Chenille is a woven fabric with a short, dense pile that gives it a soft, slightly brushed handle and a subtle sheen where the light catches the surface.

Can I use both sides of the cushion?

Yes, the design is reversible with the same chenille on both faces, so you can turn it over to even out wear or simply change the look.

What size is this cushion and what does it suit?

It is a 50 x 50cm square, the common large scatter size, which suits sofas, armchairs and the end of a bed where a fuller cushion works well.

What is the trim around the edge?

A piped trim runs around all four sides, a corded seam that outlines the square and helps the cover keep its crisp shape at the corners.
