Price History
Description
Bring a luxurious touch to your space with this wool-rich cushion. It's made in a neat square shape, with a plain cotton reverse for a traditional feel. A textured design of 3D bobbles creates a refined effect.
Our Stylist Says
This cushion is a beautifully textured piece that adds a cozy, tactile element to any sofa or bed. I love how its wool-rich fabric offers both softness and durability, making it practical for everyday use. The grey colour is incredibly versatile, working well in a range of interior styles from Scandi-neutral schemes to more eclectic, layered looks. To style it effectively, consider pairing with other textured or patterned cushions to create visual interest, or keep it as a statement piece on a minimalist sofa for understated elegance. It’s a great choice for introducing comfort and a touch of luxe without overwhelming the space.

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.
