Product Insights
This Simons Maison fringed pinstriped velvet cushion cover (50x50 cm) combines mid-century and boho styling with machine-washable convenience—its polyester velvet is softer and smoother than cotton, resists fading and pilling, and the hidden zipper keeps a clean look. At $29 CAD, it undercuts designer alternatives by 50-70% while offering hypoallergenic, machine-washable fill and cover. The tradeoff: its recycled polyester fill provides light support, making it a decorative accent suited for anchoring or layering rather than prolonged seating.
