Larro Jacquard Chenille Cushion - Smoke Green

The Larro cushion carries a checkerboard pattern woven into soft chenille jacquard, so the design is part of the cloth rather than printed on top of it. This one is the smoke green colourway: a muted, dusty green squared off against a pale natural ground, with the chenille giving each square a slight tonal shift depending on how the light catches the pile. It is a 45 by 45cm square, a standard scatter size, and it fastens with a discreet zip along one edge so the cover comes off when you need it to.

A 45cm square is the workhorse of cushion sizes, and this one earns its keep on a sofa, an armchair or across the head of a bed. The smoke green reads as a soft neutral rather than a strong colour, which is why it sits happily alongside creams, warmer browns and the deeper blues you can see in its sibling colourways. If you like a checkerboard look but want something quieter than a hard black and white, this is the register it works in. Lean it into a corner of a settee and it holds its shape well enough to look considered rather than flattened.

The face is a chenille jacquard, which means the pattern is built on the loom and the raised chenille yarn gives a soft, slightly textured hand. The edge is a clean knife finish, without piping or a flange, which keeps the look plain and modern. It is made from polyester throughout, a hard-wearing fibre that resists fading and holds colour well, so the green stays true with regular use. The zip closure makes the cover straightforward to take off. Larro comes in several understated tones, so if the smoke green suits one chair you can pick up a warmer or darker square for another and keep the same pattern running through the room.

Is the cover removable?

Yes. There is a discreet zip along one edge, so you can take the cover off whenever you need to for cleaning or storage.

What does chenille jacquard mean for the feel?

Jacquard means the checkerboard is woven into the cloth rather than printed, and the chenille yarn gives each square a soft, slightly raised texture you can feel with your hand.

What colour is this one?

It is the smoke green colourway, a muted dusty green squared against a pale natural ground, which reads as a soft neutral rather than a bright green.

Is the pattern the same on both faces?

The photographs show the checkerboard on the front face, so we would treat it as a front-facing design rather than describe a reverse we cannot see.

Will it fade in a sunny room?

Polyester holds colour well and resists fading better than many natural fibres, so the smoke green stays true with everyday use in a bright room.

What size is it and where does it suit?

It is a 45 by 45cm square, the standard scatter size, which works on a sofa, an armchair or across the head of a bed.
