Description
Bring a hit of seaside glamour to your sofa with Jonathan Adler’s Playa Cushion. Inspired by coastal icons and French ’50s jet-set style, its bold sun motif is brought to life with concentric cord embroidery on a dyed linen base. Metallic gold thread traces the graphic design for a subtle shimmer, while a feather and down inner keeps it irresistibly plush. Finished with a hidden zip for a clean, tailored look.
Our Stylist Says
This Sun Cushion is a fantastic statement piece that brings a playful yet sophisticated touch to any interior. I love its bold, vibrant colours and whimsical design, making it perfect for injecting personality into contemporary or eclectic spaces. It works especially well paired with neutral sofas or armchairs, creating a focal point without overwhelming the room. Practical styling tips include layering it with textured throws or other patterned cushions for added depth, or using it in a sunroom or living area to reflect its lively, sun-inspired theme. Its vivid design makes it versatile for both casual and more curated interiors, offering a fun pop of colour and a distinctive visual anchor.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture 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.
Influences and Design Philosophy
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.
Modern Expansion and Growth
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.
