Add a Stylish Twist to Your Sofa With a Velvet Cushion

A velvet cushion can make your sofa feel extra comfy and adds an instant sense of luxury to any room. These decorative cushions come in a variety of colours and textures to suit any home décor. There are classic cotton velvet covers in rich jewel tones such as emerald green and sapphire blue, as well as animal print velvet to give your home a wild and exotic look. If you are looking for a luxurious texture, opt for a crushed velvet or crushed velvet/velvet blend.

Velvet is a tightly woven tufted fabric that has a short, dense pile and gives a distinctively soft touch. Its unique softness is a result of the way the cut threads are evenly distributed and woven together - unlike most other fabrics that are woven with long, loose threads. Its smooth surface and close weave makes it a durable fabric that does not easily crease or become soiled.

The beauty of this type of material is that it complements almost any colour, from muted greys and neutrals to vibrant reds and deep jewel tones. Velvet can also be paired with other materials such as wool and shearling. Its natural sheen and luxurious texture complements faux fur throws, creating a beautiful contrast that will keep you cozy during winter. It’s a great addition to a leather couch, too, bringing warmth and depth to the space.

Our Velvet Cushion collection features both solid colour velvet cushion covers and patterned velvet cushions, which add a modern twist to any sofa or chair. These can really pop against a black sofa or add a punch of colour to a white or grey one.

We are passionate about ensuring our products are eco friendly. As a result, we always try to source our fabrics ethically and responsibly. We are careful with our cutting practices to ensure low waste and utilise off-cuts as much as possible. Whether that be making them into combination cushions or happy hearts, we try and keep as much out of landfill as possible.

This large velvet cushion is made from upcycled Italian cotton velvet and has a zip closure. The design is simple and elegant and has a removable insert so that it can be washed separately. It looks beautiful paired with our "Trance" cushion which has the same upcycled backing. We recommend that you use this velvet cushion with a setting powder to avoid smudging and for it to last all day. Without a setting powder, it might start to smudge with everyday use and may require a touch up after blowing your nose or touching your face.
