Price History
Description
This velvet Myrtle bolster cushion from the William Morris At Home collection makes a striking addition to your room. Its intricate floral motif is complemented by bold tasselled trims in coordinating colours. Inside, the medium-sized rectangular pad is filled with feathers for a luxurious, sink-in feeling. The pattern is shown on both sides to make this piece fully reversible.
Our Stylist Says
This cushion is a great choice for adding a touch of Victorian-inspired pattern and luxury to your interior. I love it because the velvet finish gives it a rich, tactile quality, while the tassels add a subtle decorative flourish. It works particularly well in traditional or eclectic settings with layered textiles and antique accents, but can also bring depth to a modern space if paired with complementary colours. For styling tips, try placing it as an accent on a neutral sofa or armchair, blending it with other textures like linen or wool. Its midnight hue makes it especially versatile for creating a cosy, sophisticated vibe in minimalist or darker-toned interiors.

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.
