Description
The Ribble cushion is made from pure cotton with an acid-washed, ribbed finish that gives one face a fine textured grain and the other a softer, plainer weave. Being 100% cotton means it breathes well and softens with use, and the acid stonewash is what gives the fabric its lived-in hand from the first day rather than needing to be worn in over months. This is the 40 x 60cm size, a generous lumbar shape rather than a square, so it sits along the width of a sofa or bed instead of standing upright in the corner.
A lumbar cushion of this proportion is the one you reach for to support the small of your back, which makes it well suited to a sofa you actually sit back into, a reading chair, or laid across the head of a bed in front of the pillows. The colour is a warm natural beige, quiet enough to sit with linen, wool and other undyed neutrals without competing, and the ribbed face against the plainer reverse gives you two slightly different looks from a single cushion depending on which way you turn it out.
The construction is honest and practical. The edge is finished with a twin-stitched piped trim that holds its shape, and a hidden zip along the back means the cover comes off cleanly for washing with nothing on show when it is done up. Because the whole cover is cotton, it responds to laundering as cotton does, so follow the care label on the cover and reshape it while damp. The reversible design earns its keep here: turn it over when one side has seen more use, and you effectively double the life of the face on show.

Frequently Asked
What size is this cushion and what shape?
It measures 40 by 60cm, which is a lumbar or rectangular shape rather than a square, made to sit along the width of a sofa or bed.
Is the cover really reversible?
Yes. One face carries the ribbed acid-washed texture and the other is a plainer weave, so you can turn it out either way for a slightly different look.
How does the cover come off for cleaning?
There is a hidden zip along the back of the cover, so it opens fully and comes away cleanly with no fastening visible when it is closed again.
What is the fabric made of?
The cover is 100% cotton, a natural fibre that breathes well, feels soft against the skin and softens further with use over time.
What colour is it?
It is a warm natural beige, an undyed-looking neutral that sits easily alongside linen, wool and other quiet tones without drawing attention.
