Description
This is an outdoor cushion in the Multi Acorn print, a woodland pattern of oak leaves, acorns and small flowers drawn from the original 1879 Morris & Co. hand-printing blocks. The ground is a soft off-white, worked in sage and olive greens with warm terracotta flower heads and mustard-gold acorns, and it is finished with matching piping in a caramel tone that runs cleanly around all four seams. It measures 45 x 45cm, the standard square that fits the most widely sold cushion pads and works in a pair or a stack. The cover is 100% polyester, printed rather than woven, and treated for water resistance so it holds up outside.
It is made for the garden, so a bench, a wooden lounge chair or a patio sofa is its natural home. The greens and terracotta sit easily against natural timber and terracotta pots, and the print carries enough colour to lift a plain seat without fighting a busier planting scheme. Because the palette is quiet rather than loud, it mixes happily with plainer cushions and with the other acorn and woodland colourways in the wider Multi Acorn range if you want to build a layered look on a bench or a two-seater.
The cover closes with a zip, so the pad slips in and out for storage over winter. Polyester is the practical choice here: it resists water, dries quickly and does not fade as readily as natural fibres under sun, which is what lets the cushion stay out through the seasons. The piped edge gives the square a defined, tailored line. Bring it indoors when the weather turns and it settles just as well on a sofa or a window seat.

Frequently Asked
Can this cushion be left outside all year?
The fabric is treated for water resistance and made to withstand the elements, though bringing it under cover in the worst weather will always extend its life.
Does it come with a pad or just the cover?
The listing describes the cushion cover, which measures 45 x 45cm and takes a standard square pad of the same size.
What size pad should I buy for it?
A 45 x 45cm square pad suits this cover; a slightly larger pad gives a fuller, plumper finish if you prefer a firmer look.
What is the cover made from?
It is 100% polyester, a synthetic fibre that resists water, dries quickly and holds its colour well in sunlight, which is why it works outdoors.
How do I get the cover off?
The cover has a zip closure along one edge, so the pad slips out easily for storage.
