Oranges Check Polyester Cushion - Orange

This outdoor cushion carries a watercolour design of ripe oranges hanging from a leafy branch, painted across a striped pink and orange ground. The face measures 43 x 43cm, the standard square that most scatter cushions and outdoor seat backs are cut to, so it slots straight into an existing arrangement without leaving an odd one out. It is made from 100% polyester, a fibre chosen here for how it copes outside rather than for how it feels underfoot, and the print is applied to the woven face rather than sitting on top of it.

It is built for a garden, a balcony or a covered terrace, and it earns its place on a bench, a rattan chair or a wooden dining seat where the sun reaches it. The palette is deliberately loud, so it sits happily against pale render, timber slats or a neutral outdoor sofa that needs waking up. Bring two out for a two-seater and let the fruit motif do the talking, or set it beside a plainer cushion so the pattern has room to breathe. It reads as a summer piece, the kind you carry out with the drinks and carry back in when the light goes.

The reverse is worked in a pink and orange check, so the cushion gives you a second face to turn to when you want the pattern quieter. Construction is a knife edge with a plain seam and a hidden zip, which keeps the closure out of sight and lets you take the cover off. The polyester is UV and water resistant, made to shrug off sunshine and a passing shower, though it is still a fabric and a soaked cushion is best brought under cover to dry. It coordinates with the wider Oranges range, including tableware carrying the same fruit, for a table and seating that read together.

Can this cushion be left outside?

It is made from UV and water resistant polyester, so it is built to withstand sunshine and the odd shower, but bring it under cover for prolonged wet weather so it can dry out.

What is on the back of the cushion?

The reverse carries a pink and orange check, giving you a second, quieter face to turn outward when you want less pattern on show.

How big is the cushion?

It measures 43 x 43cm, the standard square size, so it fits most outdoor chairs, benches and scatter arrangements without looking out of place.

Does the cover come off?

Yes, there is a hidden zip along one edge, which keeps the closure out of sight and lets you remove the cover.

Does it coordinate with anything else?

It sits within the wider Oranges range, which includes tableware carrying the same fruit design, so your table and seating can read together.

What is the cushion made from?

The cover is 100% polyester, chosen for outdoor use because it resists fading in the sun and shrugs off water rather than soaking it up.
