Koi Pond Abstract Velvet Cushion - Midnight

This is a 50 x 50cm cushion carrying a bold, painterly print of koi fish set against a deep midnight-blue ground. Two large orange and cream carp swim across the front, their fins fanning out in gold and pale blue, surrounded by red and green pond blooms and scattered leaves. The face is printed in bright, warm tones that lift clean off the dark background, while the reverse is a plain velvet in the same midnight blue. The cover is made from a blend of 73% polyester and 27% cotton, a mix that gives you the durability and colour-hold of polyester with a little of the softer handle cotton brings.

A square 50cm cushion is the workhorse size for a sofa or a bed. It sits well as the anchor of a layered arrangement, or as a pair at either end of a three-seater. The dark ground means this one earns its place against navy, deep green or neutral upholstery, and the flashes of orange and red give a plain room a point of focus without needing anything else added around it. Because the reverse is a solid midnight velvet, you can turn the cushion over for a calmer look and still keep it in the same scheme.

The cover is finished with a standard knife edge and closes with a hidden zip, so the seam stays clean and the cover comes off when you need it. Velvet has a directional pile, so the reverse will catch the light differently depending on how it faces the room. The koi print is designed, printed and made in the UK. If you like the pattern, the same koi design is also available as a coordinating wallpaper.

What is the cushion cover made from?

The cover is a blend of 73% polyester and 27% cotton, with a soft velvet reverse in plain midnight blue. The polyester holds colour and shape while the cotton adds a softer feel.

How does the cover come off?

There is a hidden zip along one edge, so you can take the cover off the pad. The zip is concealed within the seam so it does not interrupt the plain velvet reverse.

What size is this cushion?

It measures 50 x 50cm, a standard square that works as a sofa or bed cushion and pairs easily with other cushions in the same size.

Is the pattern on both sides?

No. The koi print is on the front only and the reverse is a plain midnight-blue velvet, so you can turn it over for a quieter look within the same scheme.

What colours are in the design?

The ground is a deep midnight blue with orange and cream koi fish, gold and pale-blue fins, and red and green pond blooms picked out across the front.
