Description
The Meridian is a plain velvet cushion in a warm ochre, finished with a contrasting teal piped trim that runs the whole way round the edge. It comes in two square sizes, 45x45cm and 55x55cm, so you can pick the scale that suits your sofa or bed. The face is a soft-touch velvet with the light-catching quality velvet is known for, its pile shifting between deeper and brighter gold as you move around it, which you can see clearly along the piped edge in the photographs.
A plain velvet cushion earns its keep because it works with almost everything. This one sits happily on a sofa, an armchair or across the head of a bed, and the ochre-and-teal pairing gives you two colours to build a scheme around: pull the teal out with other blue-green pieces, or let the ochre lead with warm neutrals and wood tones. Because the design is plain rather than patterned, it layers well in front of a printed cushion or behind a smaller accent, and a pair reads as tidy bookends at either end of a settee.
The cover is 100% polyester velvet with a piped trim and a concealed zip, so the closure stays hidden and the cover comes off when you need it to. Polyester velvet holds its colour well and resists the fading and creasing that catches out some natural fibres, which makes it a practical choice for a cushion that gets daily use. The square shape and clean piped border keep the look neat rather than fussy. If you like the ochre and teal together, the two sizes let you mix a larger and a smaller cushion in the same finish for a layered arrangement.

Frequently Asked
What colour is the piped trim?
The piping is teal, a blue-green, set against the ochre velvet face. The contrast runs all the way around the edge of the cushion on every side.
Which size should I choose?
It comes as a 45x45cm and a 55x55cm square. The larger size makes more of a feature on a deep sofa, while the smaller layers neatly in front of it.
Does the cover come off?
Yes. There is a concealed zip along one edge, so the cover can be removed while keeping the closure hidden from view when the cushion is on display.
What is the cover made of?
The cover is 100% polyester velvet. Polyester velvet keeps its colour well and resists creasing, which makes it a hard-wearing choice for everyday use.
Is the design plain or patterned?
It is a plain velvet face with no print. The only decorative detail is the contrasting piped trim around the border, which frames the cushion cleanly.
