Ribble Reversible Cotton Cushion - Honey

The Ribble cushion is a rectangular cotton cushion in a warm honey tone, worked in a fabric with a fine ribbed surface across the front. It is pure cotton throughout, given an acid stonewash that softens the cloth and settles the colour into the gently faded, lived-in look you can see across the face of the cover. At 40 x 60cm it is a bolster-style shape rather than a square, which makes it a natural choice for the front of a stack or laid along the length of a bed.

The reversible design is the detail that earns its place at home. One side carries the finer ribbed weave and the other a softer, more open cotton, so a single cover gives you two textures to choose between depending on how you dress the room. That suits a bedroom headboard, a reading chair or the corner of a sofa, and the honey colour sits happily alongside creams, soft browns and other earth tones rather than fighting them. Because it is a plain, quiet cushion it works as a foil to bolder patterned pieces as easily as it does on its own.

Cotton is a breathable, hard-wearing natural fibre that takes a wash well and only grows softer with use, which is why the stonewashed finish here already feels broken in. The cover is finished with a twin-stitched piped edge that frames all four sides, and a hidden zip along one edge lets you slip the pad in and out without a visible fastening. It is a modern classic of a cushion, plain enough to build a relaxed scheme around and easy to combine with other soft furnishings in the same subtle palette.

What is the cushion made from?

It is made from 100% cotton, a breathable natural fibre that is hard-wearing, soft to the touch and grows more comfortable the longer you use it.

What does reversible mean on this cushion?

The cover has two usable faces, so you can turn it over to show a different cotton texture depending on how you want to dress the room.

What size is it and what shape?

It measures 40 x 60cm, so it is a long rectangular bolster shape rather than a square, which suits the front of a cushion stack or the length of a bed.

How does the cover come on and off?

There is a hidden zip along one edge, so you can slip the inner pad in and out easily without a fastening showing on the front.

Does the acid stonewashed finish mean it looks worn?

Yes, that is intentional. The wash gives the cotton a soft, faded, lived-in character with a subtly uneven honey tone rather than a flat, brand-new finish.
