Description
This is a 43 x 43cm cushion carrying a hand-painted jungle scene on a soft velvet-feel face. Ring-tailed lemurs sit and stroll along vines, with parrots, a hummingbird and broad tropical fronds worked around them, all set against a deep navy ground. The face is made from 100% polyester with a velvet feel, and a slim green piped trim runs the whole way around the edge to frame the print and hold its shape.
A square cushion at this size is the everyday scatter size, and this one does its work on a sofa, a reading chair or across the head of a bed. The dark ground and the bright birds and foliage make it a good foil for plain upholstery in navy, grey or a warm neutral, and it sits happily in a contemporary or modern room where you want one lively pattern doing the talking. Group it with plainer cushions so the print has room to be seen, or let it stand alone on a lighter seat.
The reverse is a plain face in a paler tone, so you can turn it for a quieter look, and a hidden zip closure keeps the fastening out of sight and lets you take the cover off the pad. Polyester velvet holds colour well and resists crushing, which is what keeps a printed pile like this looking even over time. The green piping is picked up from the foliage in the print, tying the trim to the design rather than sitting apart from it. It is a single print rather than one of a set, so it is meant to be the piece your eye goes to first.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion cover made from?
The cover is 100% polyester with a soft velvet feel, which holds printed colour well and resists crushing so the pile stays even with use.
Can I take the cover off?
Yes. There is a hidden zip closure set into the edge, so you can slide the pad out and put the cover back on without a visible fastening.
How big is the cushion?
It measures 43 x 43cm, which is the standard square scatter size for a sofa, an armchair or the head of a bed.
What does the reverse look like?
The back is a plain face in a paler tone, so you can turn the cushion over for a quieter look while keeping the same green piped edge on show.
Where is it made?
The supplier states it was designed, printed and made in the United Kingdom, so the whole cushion comes from a UK maker.
