Description
Inspired by the richly woven aprons of the native Kirdi people in West Africa, this Sapo Velvet Cushion was birthed by Amechi, an indigenous African luxury home decor brand. Reimagining the traditional into the contemporary, the patterned design was created from hours of native hand drawing before being printed on 100% linen. Featuring an array of vibrant colours on the front with a smooth ocean-blue back, this is a cushion to display proudly in your home.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Sapo Rectangle Velvet Cushion for its vibrant, retro-inspired pattern that instantly adds visual interest to any space. Its rich velvet fabric gives it a luxurious feel, making it a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and eclectic interiors. For styling, I recommend pairing it with neutral sofas or armchairs to let the cushion’s bold colours stand out, or mix it with other textured accessories for a layered look. It’s especially effective in lively, colourful schemes or even to inject some personality into more muted, minimalist settings. Practical tip: combine it with solid-coloured cushions to keep the overall look balanced while letting this statement piece shine.

Explore from Heal's. Founded in 1810, Heal's are an iconic brand with a history of innovation, and are synonymous with timeless elegance and exceptional design.
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
