Description
This is a square cushion in a bold, wide vertical stripe, alternating a soft blush pink with a warm mid brown. The face is a jacquard velvet, which means the two-tone stripe is woven into the cloth rather than printed onto it, so the pattern is part of the fabric and the pile catches the light differently across each band. The velvet carries a matt finish, so the colours read soft rather than shiny. The cover measures 45cm by 45cm, the most common square size and the one most feather or hollowfibre pads are made to fit.
A cushion like this earns its place on a sofa, an armchair or a made-up bed, where the wide stripe gives it enough presence to sit on its own or to anchor a small group of plainer cushions. The pink and brown pairing is warm rather than cool, so it works alongside neutral walls, tan leather, cream throws and natural wood without fighting them. Turn it so the stripes run vertically for height on a bed, or lay it flat on a bench or window seat where the pattern can stretch out.
The cover is double-sided, so the same woven stripe appears front and back and you can flip it over for a quick refresh or to hide the side that has seen the most leaning. A zip closure runs along one edge, which lets you take the cover off the pad when you need to. Polyester velvet is hard-wearing and holds its colour well, which suits a cushion that gets daily use. It is offered in three colourways across the range, so you can mix and match or keep to one across a set.

Frequently Asked
Is the stripe printed or woven into the fabric?
It is jacquard woven, so the pink and brown stripe is formed in the cloth itself rather than printed on top, which keeps the pattern crisp with use.
What size cushion pad does this cover take?
The cover measures 45cm by 45cm, so a standard 45cm square pad fits it well. A slightly larger pad gives a fuller, plumper look if you prefer.
Is the same stripe on both sides?
Yes, it is double-sided with the same woven stripe front and back, so you can turn it over for a quick change or to even out wear.
Does the cover come off for cleaning?
There is a zip along one edge, so the cover lifts off the pad when you need to take it off. The supplier gives no washing instructions for it.
Is the velvet shiny or matt?
It has a matt finish, so the colours read soft and muted rather than glossy, with the pile catching a little light across each stripe.
