Description
This is the Malans cushion, a 45 x 45cm square in a soft milk cream. Its face is cut velvet worked into a fractured, crackled-glass pattern of irregular facets, so the design is felt as much as seen; the raised lines catch the light while the recessed areas sit deeper, giving the surface a quiet play of shadow and sheen as you move past it. It is made from polyester throughout, front and reverse, and finished with a piped trim that runs the full edge.
A 45cm square is the workhorse size for a sofa or an armchair, large enough to sit against your back and hold its shape rather than disappear behind you. The pale milk tone and the tonal, texture-only pattern make this an easy cushion to place: it lifts a plain sofa without competing with a busier print, and it sits comfortably against neutral bouclé, linen weaves and pale timber. The photograph shows it paired with a darker cushion of the same design, which is one way to build a set, though this listing is for the milk colourway alone.
The front is cut velvet and the reverse is a smooth velvet in the same milk shade, so the cushion reads well whichever way it faces. A piped trim frames the edge and a hidden zip lets you remove the cover, and the whole thing is polyester, which is hard-wearing and holds colour well through everyday use in a family room. Because polyester is a synthetic fibre it resists creasing and shrugs off light marks, so this is a cushion built for a sofa that gets sat on. Read the care label before cleaning, as no washing guidance was supplied with this product.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion made from?
It is 100% polyester throughout, with a cut velvet front and a smooth velvet reverse, so both faces have a velvet handle.
Does the cover come off for cleaning?
Yes, there is a hidden zip along one edge so you can take the cover off the pad when you need to.
What size is it and where does it suit?
It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that works well on a sofa, an armchair or a bed, sitting against your back and holding its shape.
What does the pattern look like?
The front is a raised, cut-velvet design in a fractured crackled-glass effect of irregular facets, tonal on the milk ground so it reads as texture rather than a bold print.
How should I clean it?
Please follow the sewn-in care label, as the supplier did not provide washing instructions for us to pass on here.
