Description
Interior designer Ben Pentreath has taken the distinctive daffodils that grace this design and pumped up the colour! Created by John Henry Dearle c.1891, the original drawing survives and can be seen at the William Morris Gallery in London. Scaled down slightly and produced on a cotton/linen cloth, the Dark Olive colourway is utterly magical with its bright, almost electric blue ground and eye-catching teal detail. Archive is a much softer choice, retaining its original colours, but with a slightly intensified vibrancy.
Our Stylist Says
I love this cushion for its vibrant, botanical design that instantly adds a touch of fresh colour and character to any space. It works particularly well in eclectic or vintage-inspired interiors, or as a lively accent in more neutral settings like a cream sofa or linen armchair. For practical styling, consider pairing it with textured throws or patterned curtains to create a layered look, or keep it as a statement piece on a plain chair to really let the design stand out. Its cheerful pattern makes it a versatile choice for living rooms and bedrooms alike, especially if you want to introduce a pop of colour without overwhelming the space.

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.
