The insert

Cover and insert, in one

Most of our pillows arrive filled: the handmade cover over a feather-and-down insert in a 233-thread-count cotton case. Where a piece comes without one, its page says so; spare inserts are sold on their own.

04 — The making

Three steps, one pillow

  • 01 — Weave Hand-loomed velvet Silk velvet woven by hand and coloured with vegetable dyes, so every length reads a little differently.
  • 02 — Back Cotton, zipped A natural cotton back with a hidden zip, so the face carries the whole pillow.
  • 03 — Fill Feather-down inside A down-feather insert that keeps its shape on a sofa, season after season.

05 — On finishing a room

A room is finished in the last ten percent — and the last ten percent is almost always cloth.

06 — Size & fit

How many, how big, in which order

An 84-inch sofa takes five: two 24″ outside, two 20″ inside, one 16×24 lumbar at the centre. Hover any size to see it on the seat at true scale, beside the sizes either side — dashed lines map each height.

Ikat · dyed before the loom The dye belongs in the weave. Ikat threads are bound and dyed, bath after bath, before they reach the loom — in natural dyes, so the pattern sits in the fibre, not on it, and no two lengths read quite alike.
