Ledbury Jacquard Velvet Cushion - Warm Taupe

The Ledbury cushion is built around a jacquard velvet face, woven so a raised geometric pattern stands proud of the ground beneath it. Look closely at the cloth and you can see two textures working together: a smooth pile that catches the light on the raised shapes, and a flatter, jersey-look base that reads as a soft natural cream. The pattern is a repeating hexagonal geometric, with the velvet outlining each shape in a warmer taupe against the paler ground. It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that most cushion pads and covers are cut to.

This is a neutral, textural cushion rather than a colour, which makes it easy to place. It sits well on a sofa or an armchair, layered with plainer cushions or alongside other patterned pieces, and the warm taupe and cream palette works with wood, rust and other earthy tones rather than fighting them. Because the interest here is in the weave and the raised pattern rather than a bold colour, it suits a living room or a bedroom where you want depth without a strong hue taking over the room.

The face is a textured jacquard velvet and the reverse is a plain, complementary soft velvet, so the cushion reads well from either side. It is finished with a knife edge trim and closes with a hidden zip, which keeps the seam clean and lets you take the cover off. The whole cushion is made from 100% polyester, a hard-wearing synthetic fibre that holds colour well, resists everyday wear and does not crease the way natural fibres can, so it stays looking neat with little effort. If you like the raised jacquard velvet look, the wider Ledbury range carries the same construction across other patterns and cushions.

What is the cushion made from?

It is made entirely from 100% polyester, a durable synthetic fibre that holds its colour, resists everyday wear and does not crease easily, so the cover stays looking neat.

Is the pattern on both sides?

No. The patterned jacquard velvet is on the face only. The reverse is a plain, complementary soft velvet, so you can turn it either way depending on the look you want.

Does the cover come off for cleaning?

Yes. It has a hidden zip along one edge, so you can remove the cover from the pad when you need to. The supplier does not state a specific washing method here.

What size cushion pad does it take?

The cover measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square size, so a 45cm pad fits it well. A slightly larger pad gives a fuller, plumper finish if you prefer.

What colours does it work with?

The warm taupe and cream palette is neutral and textural, so it sits happily with wood tones, rust and other earthy shades without competing for attention in the room.
