Choose the cover only, or the cover with a fibre or feather inner.
This is a large 45x45cm velvet-feel cushion from the Meridian range, plain-fronted in a deep charcoal grey with a contrasting piped edge in dove silver. It is a plain cushion rather than a patterned one, so what does the work here is the fabric itself and the neat line of piping that traces the whole perimeter. The face and the reverse are the same, so there is no wrong way round to place it. The cover is made of 100% polyester with a soft velvet feel, and it carries a zip closure so the cover can be taken off the pad.
A plain velvet cushion in a mid-to-deep grey is one of the easiest things to place in a room. It sits happily on a fabric sofa or an armchair, works as a layer against a plain scatter of linen or cotton cushions, and the dove piping gives it a defined edge so it reads as considered rather than plain. The charcoal body is dark enough to anchor a lighter sofa and soft enough not to dominate. Because the front and back match, you can turn it or stack it in a corner of the seat without a second thought, and the 45x45cm size is the standard scatter cushion square that most other covers are cut to.
Polyester velvet holds its pile and its colour well, and it resists the fading that catches out some natural fabrics on a sunny sofa. The zip closure means the cover comes away from the pad cleanly when you want to freshen it. The piped trim is worked in a silver-grey that lifts the charcoal without clashing, and the Meridian range runs to a spread of these two-tone piped colourways so you can group several together and let the piping do the coordinating for you.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion actually made of?
The cover is 100% polyester with a soft velvet feel, chosen because it holds its pile and its colour and stands up to everyday use on a sofa or bed.
Is the front different from the back?
No, the plain velvet face and reverse are the same, so there is no wrong way round and you can turn or stack the cushion freely.
What colour is the piping?
The body is a charcoal grey and the piped border that runs around the edge is a contrasting dove silver, giving the plain cover a defined outline.
Can I take the cover off?
Yes, there is a zip closure along one edge so the cover lifts away from the pad when you want to freshen the fabric or swap it out.
How big is it and what will it fit?
It measures 45x45cm, the standard scatter cushion square, so it suits most sofas and beds and sits alongside other covers cut to the same size.
