Dark Floral on Velvet Cushion (60 x 60 cm)

For this 60 cm (24 in) square cushion, Ellie’s original ‘Dark Floral’ design has been printed digitally on a plush velvet fabric. This fabric has a substantial weight at 220 gr/m2 and is a soft, supple blend of 15% silk and 85% rayon. It can be dry cleaned and ironed at a medium temperature. If you want to cuddle up to these giant, brooding flowers, this is the material for you!

Ellie’s original print, ’Dark Floral’, was designed in 2013, when Ellie was first becoming interested in the still life paintings of the Dutch Golden Age. It's the original design that launched her label in 2013, when it went viral on Pinterest, and has since been featured in magazines such as Vogue, Elle, LivingEtc, House and Garden, Residence, etc.

‘Dark Floral’ has an essentially black-and-white base palette, which is complimented by warm, earthy greens in the foliage behind the flowers, pops of red at the center of a single flower, and pastels (light blue, yellow, coral and off-white appear on other flowers).

For further insight into the (thought) process behind the original design, please see Ellie’s full description here.

This ‘Dark Floral’ cushion is finished with a care instructions label on the inside, a textile logo label at the bottom right corner and an invisible zipper. The back of the cushion is a black linen.
