Metro Abstract Jacquard Velvet Cushion - Multi

The Metro Abstract cushion is a velvet jacquard in a bold geometric print, worked in stacked vertical bands of pink, orange, teal, navy and a soft sage against a cream ground. It measures 40 x 60cm, the long bolster proportion that sits comfortably across the front of a sofa or against the pillows on a bed. The face carries the pattern; the reverse, as the close-up and side view show, is a plain teal velvet, so the cushion reads two ways depending on which side you turn out. It is a jacquard, which means the pattern is woven into the pile rather than printed on top of it, and you can see that raised, tactile relief clearly where the dots catch the light.

This is a cushion for a room that can carry colour. It works on a plain sofa, where its palette does the talking, and it pairs naturally with the plain teal and rust velvet cushions in the same setting for people building up a mix rather than matching a pair. The 40 x 60cm size is the one to reach for when a square cushion sits too upright and you want something to lean back into, in a living room, a reading chair or across a bed.

The fabric is 100% polyester velvet, which holds its colour well, resists crushing and wipes down more forgivingly than a natural pile. It is finished with a neat knife edge and closed with a simple zip, so the cover comes off when you need it to. The woven jacquard construction gives the surface its depth, catching light differently across the pink, teal and navy so the pattern shifts as you move past it. Style it with plainer velvets to let the geometry breathe, or stack it among other prints for a fuller, layered look.

Is the pattern printed or woven in?

It is a jacquard, which means the geometric design is woven into the velvet pile rather than printed on the surface, giving it a raised, tactile texture you can feel.

What does the back of the cushion look like?

The reverse is a plain teal velvet, so you can turn the patterned face out for colour or the plain side out for a calmer look in the same room.

What size is this cushion?

Is polyester velvet hard-wearing?
