Description
This is the Meridian cushion, a plain velvet-feel square with a bright yellow front and reverse, finished with a contrasting teal piped edge that runs right around the border. It measures 55 by 55cm, which is larger than the standard cushion many sofas come dressed with, so it holds its own shape and fills a corner properly rather than disappearing behind bigger cushions. The cover is made from 100% polyester with a soft velvet feel and closes with a concealed zip.
A cushion this size earns its place at the back of a sofa or an armchair, where the extra depth gives your shoulders something to lean into. The bright yellow reads as a warm, saturated colour against pale upholstery, and the teal piping picks it out cleanly, so it works whether you set it on a neutral linen sofa or a darker seat. It sits happily alongside patterned cushions and plain ones alike, and the two-tone edge means it bridges a yellow scheme and a blue-green one at the same time.
Both the front and the reverse are the same plain yellow, so there is no wrong way to place it and no need to fuss over which face shows. The piped trim is stitched into the seam, which gives the edge a bit of structure and holds the square shape. Being polyester, the cover resists creasing and holds its colour well. The Meridian range runs across several complementary colourways with the same piped-edge treatment, so you can pair or contrast pieces from the same family if you want to build a set.

Frequently Asked
Is the cover the same colour on both sides?
Yes, both the front and the reverse are the same plain yellow, so you can place it either way round without any difference showing.
How big is this cushion compared with a standard one?
It measures 55 by 55cm, which is larger than the usual 45cm cushion, so it gives more support and fills a sofa corner more fully.
What is the piped edge like?
A contrasting teal cord is stitched into the seam all the way around, which gives the border definition and helps the square hold its shape.
Does it have a removable cover?
The cover has a zip closure, so it can be taken off the pad. The supplier does not state whether the pad is included, so please check before ordering.
What is the fabric made from?
It is 100% polyester with a soft velvet feel, which resists creasing and holds its colour well over time.
