The Philia Cushion is a linen velvet cushion in Prairie, sized 33 x 57cm. The pile has a subtle texture and the colour is solid, which makes it easy to place beside bright patterns or quieter tones. It is a rectangular shape rather than a square.

Velvet earns its place through light more than colour. Move around a room and the pile shifts between darker and brighter, which is why a solid velvet cushion rarely looks flat even in a plain scheme.

The rectangular format is useful on a deep sofa or propped against bed pillows, where a square can look bulky. Prairie is a single solid tone, so it takes pressure off the rest of an arrangement if your other covers are busy. Whether an insert is included is not stated, so ask first if that matters to you.
