Description
The Rowan cushion pairs two textures on one 50 x 50cm square: a deep, shaggy faux fur front with the long, loose pile of a Mongolian look, and a smooth reverse. The whole cushion is made from 100% polyester, and it is finished in a soft mid-grey that sits comfortably against most upholstery colours. The front is all about tactility, the reverse quieter and flatter, so the cushion reads differently depending on which face is showing.
A 50 x 50cm square is the workhorse size for a sofa, filling the corner of a three-seater without swamping it and stacking neatly against a larger cushion behind. It suits a living room where you want something to sink into on a quiet evening, and it works equally on a bed as the front layer of a made-up arrangement. The long fur pile does the heavy lifting here, so one or two of these against plainer cushions is usually enough. Grey keeps it flexible, reading warm next to browns and creams and cool next to blues.
The reverse is a smooth velvet, which gives you a second, calmer texture to turn to and a practical face that shows less than the fur. A hidden zip runs along the reverse, so the cover comes off cleanly and the closure stays out of sight. Being polyester, the fur holds its shape and colour well through everyday use, and a gentle shake settles the pile back into place. If you like the pairing of a plush front and a plainer back, this is a straightforward way to add depth to a scheme without committing to a busy pattern.

Frequently Asked
What does the faux fur front feel like?
It has a long, loose pile in the Mongolian style, so the front is deep and shaggy rather than short and dense, giving it a soft, plush hand.
Is the whole cushion faux fur?
No. The front is faux fur and the reverse is a smooth velvet, so you get two contrasting textures on the one cushion and can turn whichever you prefer to the front.
Does the cover come off?
Yes, there is a hidden zip along the reverse, so the cover unzips cleanly from the pad and the closure stays out of sight when the cushion is in use.
What size is it and where does it work best?
It measures 50 x 50cm, the standard square for a sofa corner, and it also works well as the front layer of a made-up bed arrangement.
What is it made from?
The cushion is 100% polyester throughout, which helps the fur pile keep its shape and colour through everyday use around the home.
