Camilla’s a reversible scatter cushion, with one fabric on the front and another on the back so you can easily switch to a new colour, texture or pattern. The ethically sourced duck feather filling is covered in a mix of Hugo, a chunky 100% linen, and our smooth Isla velvet.
Design & engineering
The materials: linen
The fabric has an even weave with a few slubs to give it a tactile finish. This result is achieved through the combination of dry- and wet-spinning, where the long fibres are smoothed out with water to produce a uniform texture and the other dry fibres are slightly less refined to give it a rustic feel. The yarns are twisted together to give the material strength that’s designed to last.
The materials: velvet
Made from 100% cotton, this material is strong, soft and has a slight stretch. It’s also backed with a cotton and polyester mix for excellent structure. A common feature of velvet is its pile direction – the ‘shadow’ which appears when you brush your hand up or down the fabric. But our trusted partners, who have been developing velvet since 1932, have created a straight pile, which means there’s no visible marks or indentations on the material.
Design detail
To remove the feather-filled pad, we’ve included a concealed zip in the side – an especially useful feature when you need to wash the cover. We’ve also added piping to the edges – in this case, it means you can see a small amount of the velvet on the linen side, a design detail that adds a hint of contrasting texture and colour.
There can be colour variation between different batches of our fabric but this is to be expected with natural fibres.
