Description
This is the Lil Scallop Plain Velvet Cushion, a square 45cm cushion in a deep chocolate brown with a scalloped edge finished in contrast burgundy piping and thread. The face is a plain velvet with no pattern, so the interest comes entirely from the shape of the edge and the two-tone colour play rather than any print. It is a soft polyester velvet, which gives that short, dense pile and the way the colour shifts a little as the light and the nap catch it.
A 45cm square is the standard sofa and bed cushion size, which makes this an easy one to slot into an existing arrangement rather than having to rethink the whole set. The chocolate ground is a warm, grounding neutral that sits happily against cream, caramel and other browns, while the burgundy scallop gives it enough of a lift to read as considered rather than plain. Use one as a quiet anchor among brighter cushions, or a pair at either end of a sofa where the scalloped outline gets room to show. It works equally well propped against pillows on a bed.
The cover is double-sided velvet, so the same pile and colour run front and back and it looks right whichever way it falls. The scalloped trim is stitched with a contrast thread that picks up the burgundy of the piping, and a zip closure runs along one edge so the cover comes off for cleaning. Being polyester, the velvet is hard-wearing and holds its colour well, which suits a cushion that is meant for everyday use. Please refer to the sewn-in label for care guidance before washing.

Frequently Asked
Is the velvet the same on both sides of the cushion?
Yes, the cover is double-sided velvet, so the chocolate pile and the scalloped burgundy edge run across the front and the back equally.
What is the cushion made from?
The cover is 100% polyester velvet, which gives a short, dense pile that is hard-wearing and tends to hold its colour well through everyday use.
Does the cover come off for cleaning?
There is a zip closure along one edge, so the cover slips off the pad easily when you need to clean it or store it away.
What size is this cushion?
It is a 45 by 45cm square, the standard sofa and bed size, which makes it simple to mix in with cushions you already own.
What colours will it sit well with?
The chocolate ground is a warm neutral that pairs with cream, caramel and other browns, and the burgundy scallop lifts it against richer tones.
Is there a filling pad included?
The photograph shows the cushion filled, but the record does not confirm whether a pad is supplied, so please check before ordering if that matters.
