Description
The Ultimate Stripe cushion is a 45 x 45cm square worked in a jacquard velvet, with wide vertical stripes running the full height of the face. The photograph shows two warm tones alternating: a soft peachy caramel against a deeper terracotta rust, a creative pairing the supplier calls Pumpkin Spice. The stripes are woven in rather than printed, so the pile itself changes direction between bands and each stripe catches the light a little differently as you move past it. The finish is matt rather than glossy, which keeps the colour warm and stops the velvet looking shiny.
A square cushion at this size is the workhorse of a sofa or a bed. At 45 x 45cm it sits comfortably against a standard sofa back or at the head of a bed, large enough to lean on and small enough to layer in front of bigger cushions. The warm caramel and rust palette settles happily into a neutral room and gives you something to build a scheme around, whether you are pairing it with plainer cushions in cream or leaning into an earthy mix. The vertical stripe also reads as a change of texture as much as a change of colour, so it works alongside solid velvets and flatter weaves alike.
The cover is double-sided, so you can turn it over for a quick refresh, and it fastens with a zip closure that makes the cover easy to take off. The face is 100% polyester velvet, which is hard-wearing and holds its colour well through everyday use, a sensible choice for a cushion that gets leaned on and moved about. It is one of a wider Ultimate Stripe range, so you can mix and match colourways across a sofa or a bed if you want to build a set. Style it on its own as a single accent, or in a pair either end of a longer sofa.

Frequently Asked

What size is this cushion?
It measures 45 x 45cm, a standard square that suits a sofa back or the head of a bed and layers easily in front of larger cushions.
Does the cover come off for cleaning?
Yes, it has a zip closure along one edge, so the cover can be taken off the pad when you need to.
What is the velvet made from?
The face is 100% polyester velvet, which is hard-wearing and holds its colour well, making it a practical choice for a cushion in daily use.
Can I use both sides?
Yes, the cushion is double-sided with the same striped design on both faces, so you can simply turn it over for a quick refresh.
