Description
The Verona is a crushed-velvet-look cushion in a deep teal blue, made from 100% polyester. It measures 55 x 55cm, which is a generous square that holds its own on a bed or across a sofa rather than disappearing into the cushions already there. The crushed finish is what gives it its character: the pile is pressed in different directions so the surface catches the light unevenly, shifting between a bright petrol blue and a darker, almost inky tone as you move around it. No two areas read quite the same, which is the point of a crushed pile rather than a flaw in it.
At 55cm square it works as a main cushion on a bed or an armchair, or as one of a pair anchoring the corners of a larger sofa. The teal sits happily against warm neutrals, greys and darker woods, and the shimmer means it earns its place in a room where you want one thing to draw the eye. Because polyester holds colour strongly and resists fading in daylight, it suits a spot near a window as well as a shaded corner. It reads as an accent or the main feature depending on what you pair it with.
The cover is polyester throughout, which is why it feels silky rather than woollen and why the crushed effect stays put. A small zip along one edge lets you take the cover off, and the fastening is set discreetly so it does not interrupt the surface. Polyester is a hard-wearing, easy-living fibre, and this cover is safe to iron on a low setting should the pile need settling after washing. It comes in a range of other colours if you want to build a set across a room.

Frequently Asked
Is the cover removable?
Yes. There is a small zip set discreetly along one edge, so you can take the cover off without it interrupting the crushed velvet surface on the front.
What is the crushed velvet look and does it wear evenly?
The pile is pressed in different directions so it catches the light unevenly and shifts tone as you move around it. That varied surface is the intended effect, not uneven wear.
Can I iron it?
Yes, the cover is safe to iron. Use a low setting and work gently, which helps settle the pile back down if it has moved during washing.
How big is the cushion?
It is 55 x 55cm, a generous square that sits well as a main cushion on a bed or armchair, or as one of a pair on a larger sofa.
What is it made of?
The cover is 100% polyester, which gives it a silky hand, holds its colour strongly and keeps the crushed finish in place through everyday use.
