Description
The Lexington cushion has a jacquard velvet woven face patterned with a close-set grid of small diamond motifs, each one picked out in its own tone so the surface reads as a scattering of cream, gold-beige, mid grey and near-black shapes across a pale ground. It measures 40 x 60cm, a generous rectangular bolster shape rather than a square, and the whole thing is made from polyester, which is what gives it a soft velvet hand while staying hard-wearing.
A rectangular cushion of this length is one to place along the back of a sofa or across the head of a bed, where it fills the width that two square cushions leave awkward. The palette here is entirely neutral, greys warmed with cream and touched with black, so it settles against grey, charcoal and natural-linen upholstery without fighting it, and lifts a plain scheme with pattern rather than colour. Layer it in front of larger plain cushions and let the diamond face do the talking.
Construction is worth knowing about. The patterned velvet front is paired with a plain velvet reverse in a soft mid-grey, so the cushion works whichever way it falls, and the two faces meet at a knife edge with no piped border. A hidden zip along one edge lets you remove the cover, and because the whole cushion is polyester it is an easy-care fabric that stands up to everyday use. It is one of a wider range of jacquard velvets we carry, so you can build a set across different patterns in the same soft finish.

Frequently Asked
What size is this cushion and what shape?
It is a rectangular cushion measuring 40 x 60cm, longer than it is tall, which suits the back of a sofa or the head of a bed better than a square.
Is the pattern on both sides?
No. The jacquard velvet diamond pattern is on the front only, and the reverse is a plain soft velvet in mid-grey, so you can turn it either way.
Does the cover come off?
Yes, there is a hidden zip fastening along one edge, so the cover can be taken off the pad when you need to.
What is it made from?
The cushion is made entirely from polyester, which gives it a soft velvet feel while staying durable enough for everyday use on a well-used sofa.
What colours are in the design?
The diamonds are worked in cream, gold-beige, several shades of grey and a deep near-black, all set on a pale grey ground, so the overall effect stays neutral.
