Description
This is a plain heavy chenille cushion in a soft mauve, measuring 50 x 50cm. Chenille is a woven pile fabric with a short, dense nap, and here it is a heavy weight, which gives the cover its close, slightly velvety hand and a surface that catches the light differently as you move past it. The face is a single unbroken colour with no pattern, so the interest comes entirely from the texture and the piped edge that runs around all four sides. It is made from 100% polyester.
A 50 x 50cm square is one of the most useful cushion sizes to own, large enough to anchor the corner of a sofa or sit against the headboard on a bed without disappearing behind smaller scatter cushions. The muted mauve is a quiet, dusky purple that sits happily with greys, warm neutrals and other soft tones, so it works as a calm addition to a living room, a reading chair or a bedroom rather than a loud accent. Pair a couple together, or set one against deeper or brighter cushions to let the plain colour do the steadying.
The cover is finished with a piped trim around the seam, which defines the shape of the cushion and helps the edges hold their line with use. A zip closure lets you take the cover off, which makes cleaning and swapping straightforward. Being polyester, the fabric is hard-wearing and holds colour well, which suits a cushion that gets leaned on and moved about day to day. The plain face means it slots easily alongside patterned pieces if you want to build up a mix over time.
