Description

This is an outdoor cushion carrying William Morris's Snakeshead design, the archive pattern he drew in 1876. It measures 40 x 60cm, a generous rectangular bolster shape rather than a square, printed edge to edge in soft greens, gold and cream across a stone ground. The mirrored floral motif runs the full width of the face, with the two large upright blooms meeting at the centre and the smaller buds and scrolling foliage filling the rest. It is made from 100& polyester and finished with an Oxford border, the flat fabric frame you can see running around all four sides.

It is built for a garden or patio, so it earns its place outdoors on a bench, a lounger or a rattan sofa rather than only indoors. The 40 x 60cm rectangle suits the small of the back or the arm of a seat better than an upright square does, which is what makes it a good lumbar cushion for a garden bench. The greens and golds sit happily against natural wood and stone, and the print reads clearly from across a courtyard, so it does its work as much at a distance as up close. Pair it with a plainer cushion to let the pattern lead.

Polyester is the reason this one can live outside: it sheds water rather than soaking it up, so a shower does not leave you with a sodden cushion, and the colour holds up to daylight better than many natural fibres. The supplier states the fabric is treated to be water resistant, and a zip closure lets you take the cover off when you need to. The Oxford border gives the print a defined edge and keeps the shape crisp. Snakeshead is one of several Morris designs we carry in this outdoor range, and the same print appears in other colourways if this palette is not the one for your space.

Frequently Asked

Can this cushion stay outside?

It is made for outdoor use and the supplier states the polyester fabric is treated to be water resistant, so it copes with a garden or patio through the seasons.

What size is it and what does that suit?

It measures 40 x 60cm, a rectangle rather than a square, which sits well as a lumbar cushion on a bench, a lounger or the arm of a garden sofa.

What is the cushion made from?

The cover is 100 per cent polyester, chosen because it sheds water and holds its colour in daylight far better than most natural fibres do outdoors.

Can I remove the cover?

Yes, it has a zip closure, so you can take the cover off the pad when you want to, which also makes the print easier to keep clean.

What is the Oxford border?

It is the flat fabric frame running around all four edges of the cushion, giving the printed face a defined edge and keeping the shape crisp.

What is the Snakeshead pattern?

It is a William Morris floral design first drawn in 1876, a mirrored motif of upright blooms and scrolling foliage that runs across the whole face.
