Description
We are delighted by both the aesthetic and the ethics of these Indie cushions made from a blend of cotton and recycled plastic bottles. The soft dusky pink and rust tones of the fabric make them a fresh addition to any or , bringing an understated pop of colour and interest, while still sitting pretty within a neutral palette. The woven chevron design gives texture and tactility to this simple, durable piece that looks at home in any scheme and gives a new lease of life to a waste material that works beautifully as a long-lasting textile. Please note, this is the outer cover only. Available in two sizes. Our will accompany your cushion cover perfectly.
Our Stylist Says
I love this cushion cover for bringing a warm, earthy tone to a neutral interior. Its rust colour pairs beautifully with both contemporary and rustic styles, making it versatile for sofas, armchairs, or even bedding accents. The recycled textile aspect adds a layer of sustainability, which is increasingly important. To style it effectively, try combining it with textured throws or other cushions in neutral hues for a layered look, or mix with patterns for a boho vibe. Its 50x50cm size offers plenty of versatility, fitting well in most seating areas, and it’s easy to swap out for seasonal refreshes. Overall, it’s a practical choice that combines style, comfort, and eco-conciousness seamlessly.

About Nkuku
The Story of Nkuku
Inspired by the artisans they met during a world trip in 2002, Ali and Alex established Nkuku, a brand that celebrates handmade techniques and traditional skills from artisans across the world.
The journey began with a business plan drafted on a beach, with the name "Nkuku" taken from a Zambian village they passed.
Starting in Devon, they initially sold products from their travels at local markets. Eventually, Nkuku transitioned from a wholesale business to a known retail brand, offering a wide range of homewares, from tableware to furniture.
Values and Ethical Commitment
Nkuku is not just about selling products; it's about values. They are committed to an ethical approach, partnering with independent businesses, social projects, and cooperatives. Their focus? Building transparent, strong relationships with suppliers to ensure mutual success.
They're also environmentally conscious, incorporating natural and recycled materials into their products. From golden hemp and reclaimed mango wood to textiles recycled from old t-shirts, Nkuku champions sustainability and eco-friendly production methods.
Sustainability at Its Heart
Every Nkuku product tells a tale, capturing the essence of traditional, handmade craftsmanship. By embracing low-impact production methods, they bring collections that are individually crafted, ensuring each piece is unique.
The brand cherishes the age-old knowledge passed down through generations of artisans. It's not just about home décor for them; it's about keeping a rich heritage alive and celebrating the beauty of handmade uniqueness.
