A soft inner cushion for everyday use
This standard square pillow insert measures around 45 by 45 cm and is filled with light, lofted polyester fibre. It is designed as an inner cushion: you slip a decorative cover over the top, and the insert keeps the cover plump, soft and well shaped.
Why this size works
45 by 45 cm is the most widely used cushion size in European homes, so this insert fits the great majority of decorative covers found on sofas, beds and armchairs. The polyester fill keeps the cushion springy without weighing it down.
How you can use it
Slide a favourite cushion cover over the insert, fasten the zip or fold, and place it on your sofa, reading chair or bed. Many readers also use one or two inserts in a window seat or on a daybed, where the soft fibre adds a welcoming feel. You can wash the cover separately whenever it needs refreshing, while the insert stays inside.

Care
Plump the insert gently with your hands every now and then to keep the fibre evenly distributed. If it picks up dust, a soft brush or a vacuum on a low setting is enough. Spot clean the outer shell with a slightly damp cloth, then allow it to dry fully before slipping it back into a cover.
