Description
For cuddling and relaxing, our John Lewis & Partners cushion is made from soft cotton into a cute whale. The Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) is a not-for-profit organisation who exists to ‘make global cotton production better for the people who produce it, better for the environment it grows in, and better for the sector’s future. BCI works with partners around the world such as WWF, Solidaridad and Cotton Connect to train farmers to produce cotton more sustainably. By buying cotton products from John Lewis, you’re supporting the training of these farmers to use water efficiently, care for the health of the soil and natural habitats, reduce the use of the most harmful chemicals and apply principles of fair and decent work.
Our Stylist Says
I love this whale cushion for its playful yet simple design, making it a charming addition to both children's and casual living spaces. It works particularly well in soft, neutral interiors or coastal-inspired schemes, where it can add a touch of fun without overwhelming the decor. For styling tips, try pairing it with other marine-themed accessories or textured throws to create a cosy, inviting feel. It’s also perfect for adding visual interest to a nursery or a child’s bedroom, and it can be easily combined with other cushions for a relaxed, layered look on a sofa or armchair. Its soft colour and friendly expression make it a versatile piece to introduce a bit of whimsy into everyday living.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
