Description
The Meridian cushion is a plain velvet-feel cover in a deep teal blue, finished around all four edges with a piped border in bright clementine orange. It is one solid colour on both the front and the reverse, with no pattern to line up, so the contrast comes entirely from the trim that runs the perimeter. The cover measures 45 by 45cm, a generous square that reads as a proper full-sized cushion rather than a small scatter, and the pile has the short, dense nap you can see catching the light across the face in the photographs.
A single teal cushion with an orange edge is a confident thing to place, and it earns its keep on a sofa, an armchair or a bed where you want one clear point of colour rather than a busy mix. The teal sits happily against grey, cream or natural upholstery, and the clementine piping gives you a second accent colour to pick up elsewhere in the room, in a throw, a lamp base or a vase. Because both faces are the same, it looks finished whichever way it falls, which matters on a seat that gets sat on and plumped through the day.
The cover is made from 100% polyester with a velvet feel, a fibre chosen here for a soft hand that holds up to daily use and resists creasing. It closes with a zip along one edge, so the cover comes off for cleaning and the pad stays separate. The piped trim is a corded edge stitched into the seam, which is what gives the square its crisp outline and keeps the shape neat corner to corner. The Meridian range runs to other colourways with the same plain body and contrasting piping, so you can build a coordinated set across a room if you want more than one.

Frequently Asked
Is the cushion the same colour front and back?
Yes, both the front and the reverse are plain teal, so the cover looks finished whichever face is showing when it sits on a seat.
What is the orange edge made of?
It is a corded piping in clementine orange, stitched into the seam that runs around all four sides, giving the square a crisp defined outline.
How big is this cushion?
The cover measures 45 by 45cm, a full-sized square rather than a small scatter, which makes it a comfortable size for a sofa or a bed.
Does the cover come off?
Yes, there is a zip along one edge so you can remove the cover from the pad, which makes handling and storing it more straightforward.
What does the polyester velvet feel like?
It has a short dense pile with a soft velvet-feel hand, and polyester is hard-wearing and resists creasing, so it copes well with everyday use.
Can I get matching cushions in other colours?
The Meridian range includes other colourways with the same plain body and contrasting piping, so you can coordinate several across one room.
