Description
This is the Meridian velvet cushion, a plain square in a hot pink velvet with a contrasting red piped trim running around all four edges. It measures 45 by 45cm, a standard scatter size that suits most sofas and beds without swamping the seat. The face is a soft-touch polyester velvet with the short, dense pile you can see catching the light differently as it turns, which is what gives velvet its depth of colour from one angle to the next.
A single strong colour like this earns its place as an accent. Set one hot pink cushion against a neutral sofa and it does the work of a whole scheme; set two or three and they carry a brighter, more playful room. The contrasting red piping frames the face and keeps the edges crisp, so the cushion reads as finished rather than plain even at a distance. It layers happily with cushions in other textures, and the square shape stacks and leans well in a corner or at the head of a bed.
Construction is straightforward and built to last: a piped edge on all sides and a concealed zip along one, so the cover comes off for cleaning and the closure stays out of sight. The fill is polyester throughout, which holds its shape and springs back after use. Because the pile is polyester rather than a natural fibre, it resists crushing and keeps its colour well. Check the sewn-in label before washing, as care instructions are not given to us here. If you like a bold, single-colour look, this is a simple way to bring one into a room.

Frequently Asked
Is the cover removable for cleaning?
Yes, there is a concealed zip along one edge, so the cover comes off the fill. Check the sewn-in label for the correct cleaning method before you start.
What size is this cushion?
It measures 45 by 45cm, a common scatter cushion size that works on most sofas, armchairs and beds either on its own or grouped with others.
What is the piping around the edge?
A contrasting red piped trim runs around all four sides of the hot pink face, framing the cushion and giving the edges a crisp, defined finish.
What is the cushion made from?
The face and fill are both polyester. The velvet pile is a soft-touch polyester that holds its colour and springs back into shape after use.
Does velvet catch the light?
Yes, velvet has a directional pile, so the hot pink shifts in tone as you move around it or brush the surface one way against the other.
