{"product_id":"soren-abstract-velvet-cushion-chalk","title":"Soren Abstract Velvet Cushion - Chalk","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Soren cushion is a 45cm square in cut velvet, its face worked with an abstract geometric design that stands proud of the ground. Look closely at the weave and you can see how the pile has been sculpted: the raised motifs catch the light one way and the recessed ground another, so the pattern reads as texture as much as line. In Chalk, that play is quiet rather than loud. The face is a soft off-white, the maze-like tracery picked out in the same tone so the effect is tonal and calm, and the plain reverse in a matching chalk velvet keeps the cushion useful whichever way you turn it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 45cm square is the workhorse size for a sofa or a bed, big enough to sit against and layer with others rather than disappearing behind them. This one earns its place through texture instead of colour, which makes it easy to live with in a room that already has plenty going on. It sits happily against a linen sofa in a neutral scheme, softens a leather chair, and pairs with deeper velvet cushions if you want the abstract design to run across a set. On a made bed it works as the front layer where its raised pattern gets seen and felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe construction is cut velvet throughout, face and reverse, with a zip closure so the insert comes out for cleaning or replacement. The zip also lets you swap the cover between seasons if you keep more than one. Being 100% polyester, the velvet holds its colour well and resists the fading and crushing that can trouble natural pile over time. Smooth the pile back into place after use to keep the surface even. The Soren design runs across several colourways if you want to build a mix, from this pale Chalk through to warmer and darker tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% polyester cut velvet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbstract geometric, cut velvet face with plain reverse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZip closure, velvet face and reverse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 x 45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does cut velvet mean on this cushion?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCut velvet is a pile fabric where areas of the surface are sheared to different heights, so the pattern stands out through texture and the way it catches light rather than through print.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I take the cover off to clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the zip closure lets you remove the insert, so the cover can be cleaned or swapped and the insert kept or replaced separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour is the Chalk cushion?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a soft off-white, near cream, with the abstract design picked out in the same pale tone so the effect is tonal and understated rather than high contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the pattern on both sides?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the abstract cut velvet design is on the face only.
