Price History
Description
The Pimpernel design features large sensual tulips and their curling leaves, entwined with foliage and small pimpernel flowers. The pattern layout is almost symmetrical and was originally hung at Kelmscott Manor, the summer home of William Morris in West Oxfordshire. Digitally printed onto an elegant, linen-look, cotton base, in a classic colour palette of blues, creams and yellow, with a cream cotton-velvet reverse and smart fringed edging, this cushion is perfect for celebrating pattern and nature in your home.
Our Stylist Says
I love this cushion for its classic William Morris design, which brings a timeless, artisanal feel to both traditional and contemporary interiors. Its rich indigo tones are versatile, working well in cosy living rooms, country-style settings, or even in eclectic, layered schemes. To style effectively, consider pairing it with neutral or earthy tones to let the pattern stand out, or mix it with other textures like linen or velvet for added depth. Practical tips include using it as a statement piece on a sofa or armchair, and keeping other accessories understated to let the intricate design shine. The cushion is a great choice for adding personality and a touch of heritage to your 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.
