Price History
Description
Decorated with elegant birds and classic florals, this Laura Ashley bolster cushion brings luxury to your soft furnishings. It's made from pure cotton with embroidered highlights. A feather filling makes it extra plump and comfy. The cushion was created to celebrate 70 years of the brand and has a small 'Laura Ashley 70 Years' badge at the corner.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Midnight bolster cushion for its elegant yet versatile design. The deep navy hue makes it a great choice for adding a sophisticated pop of colour to both traditional and contemporary interiors. It works particularly well in cosy living rooms or bedrooms, where its classic floral pattern can complement other soft furnishings. For styling tips, try pairing it with neutral-toned throws or layering with patterned cushions in similar shades to create a balanced look. Its size and shape also make it ideal for adding dimension without overcrowding a sofa or bed, while the pure cotton fabric ensures it’s practical and easy to maintain.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
