Pebble Linen Chenille Cushion - Lichen

The Pebble cushion earns its name on the front, where a soft chenille pile is worked into a raised, pebble-like surface. Every rounded shape catches the light a little differently, so the face reads as a shifting field of texture rather than a flat panel of colour. Ours is the Lichen colourway, a deep olive green with a slight sheen where the chenille catches daylight. It measures 45 by 45cm, the standard square that suits most cushion pads and most sofas, and the whole cover is made from 100% polyester chenille.

This is a cushion for adding depth to a seat rather than a bold pattern. The green sits happily against natural wood, warm neutral walls and other textured pieces, and the reverse is a plain, linen-look weave in pale cream, so you can turn it over for a quieter face when you want one. Use it on a sofa, an armchair or across the foot of a bed, on its own for a single note of colour or grouped with plainer cushions to let the texture do the talking. It works as well in a relaxed living room as it does in a bedroom.

The cover fastens with a zip along one edge, so it lifts off easily for cleaning and the pad slips back in without a struggle. Polyester chenille is hard-wearing and holds its softness through regular use, which makes this a practical choice for a cushion that gets sat against every day. The pebble face and the smooth reverse give you two looks in one cover. The Pebble range runs across several colourways, so you can match this Lichen green to warmer or cooler tones in the same texture if you are dressing a whole seat.

What size cushion pad does this cover take?

The cover measures 45 by 45cm, so a standard 45cm square pad fits it well. For a fuller, plumper look you can size up to a 50cm pad.

Is the whole cushion the same on both sides?

No. The front carries the raised chenille pebble texture and the reverse is a plain, linen-look weave, so you get two different faces from the one cover.

Can I remove the cover to clean it?

Yes. There is a zip along one edge, which lets you take the cover off the pad easily for cleaning and slide it back on afterwards.

What is the cover made from?

It is 100% polyester chenille. Polyester is hard-wearing and keeps its softness through everyday use, which suits a cushion that gets leaned against often.

Does the green have a pattern or is it plain colour?

The colour is a single deep olive green. The interest comes from the raised pebble texture rather than a printed or woven pattern across the face.
