Cushion Covers
New cushion covers are the simplest way to give a sofa, armchair or bed a fresh look. They cost far less than new furniture, take seconds to change and can shift the whole feel of a room, from calm and tonal to rich and characterful. The Mikolia cushion covers collection brings together premium quality cushion covers in woven tapestry, gold jacquard, faux fur, cut velvet and embroidered designs, chosen to layer easily with each other and with the rest of our soft furnishings.
Every cover in the Mikolia edit is a decorative cushion cover with a zip closure, supplied as a cover only so you can choose the filling that suits you. Our Cushion Pad Insert with Zip comes in both 45 x 45cm and 50 x 50cm to fit every cover in the collection.
45x45 and 50x50 cushion covers: which size to choose
45x45 cushion covers are the standard size for most sofas and armchairs, and they make up the majority of our range. They sit neatly against the back of a two or three-seater and are easy to group in twos and threes. 50x50 cushion covers are fuller and more generous, ideal for deep sofas, the back row of a layered arrangement or propped against pillows on a bed. A simple rule is to put 50 x 50cm cushions at the back and 45 x 45cm in front, which adds depth without looking crowded.
Our most-loved statement covers
The Rose Bouquet Tapestry Cushion Cover is one of the most-loved pieces in the Mikolia edit. In the style of a classic gobelin tapestry, it shows a woven bouquet of dusky pink, mauve and blush roses with white blossoms and green foliage on a warm beige ground, framed by an ornate tonal border and finished with a cream bobble trim on all four sides. At 50 x 50cm it brings a vintage, collected feel to a sofa, a bedroom chair or a window seat.
For woven texture with a relaxed, bohemian edge, the Woven Grid Tassel Cushion Cover pairs a grey weave with a raised cream windowpane check, while the Diamond Weave Tassel Cushion Cover sets a bold band of black diamond lattice across a cream ground. Both are finished with a tassel at each corner and look beautiful on Scandi, farmhouse and boho sofas. The Equestrian Horse Wool-Blend Cushion Cover is another standout: four contrasting panels, each with a woven horse motif and visible blanket stitching, in orange and tan or charcoal and cream.
Cream and gold: the coordinated living room
If you are dressing a light, minimalist living room with a hint of luxury, our cream and gold cushion covers are designed to sit together. The Wave Jacquard, Branch Jacquard and Greek Key covers bring pattern through a woven gold motif, while the Cream and Metallic Gold Abstract and Cream and Metallic Gold Streak covers add a softer shimmer. Mix two or three designs on a cream, oatmeal or pale grey sofa and they read as one considered set. These living room cushion covers work especially well alongside the Floral Tree Fringed Throw Blanket and the gold and ceramic pieces in our living room collection.
Faux fur cushion covers
Faux fur cushion covers add instant warmth and a touch of playfulness, and they come into their own in autumn and winter. The Tiger Stripe Faux Fur Cushion Cover in tan and cream, the Leopard Print Faux Fur Cushion Cover in brown and black and the Faux Fur Spot Cushion Cover in cream, brown and black bring animal print to a neutral sofa, while the Diamond Faux Fur Cushion Cover in cream and grey offers a softer, geometric option. Pair any of them with the Large Camel Faux Fur Throw Blanket or the Zebra Print Faux Fur Throw Blanket for a cosy, layered look.
Dark and dramatic
If you are looking for a premium cushion cover in a darker colour, start with the Abstract Brushstroke Cut Velvet Cushion Cover. A dense polyester velvet cut at two heights creates a raised black and silver brushstroke pattern, finished with black piped edges for crisp corners. It grounds a pale sofa beautifully, either as a single accent or as a symmetrical pair. For a monochrome scheme, add the Brushstroke Plaid Cushion Cover in black, grey and white or the Embroidered Damask Cushion Cover in black and cream.
Embroidered cushion covers
Our embroidered cushion covers bring pattern and rich texture in easy, versatile colours. The Embroidered Damask design comes in mustard, taupe and black, each on cream. The Embroidered Chevron comes in taupe and teal, and sits well beside the Embroidered Geometric Circle in teal. For warmer, heritage-inspired pattern, choose the Embroidered Kilim in taupe, the Embroidered Quatrefoil in mustard or the Ornamental Scroll in mustard yellow. The Embroidered Triangle Cushion Cover in cream and taupe has a crisp, graphic pattern that also makes a lovely choice for festive styling.
How to style sofa cushion covers
Start with the largest pattern and build around it. Choose one statement cover, such as a tapestry or cut velvet design, then add two plainer or smaller-scale covers that pick up one of its colours. Mix textures as well as patterns: a faux fur cover next to an embroidered one and a smooth jacquard always looks more considered than three of the same. Odd numbers feel relaxed, while matching pairs on each end of a sofa feel more formal. On a bed, lean two 50 x 50cm covers against the pillows and finish with a knot pillow from our decorative pillows collection in front.
Modern home cushion covers for every room
In the living room, sofa cushion covers set the tone of the whole space, so choose a palette that repeats something already in the room, whether that is a rug, a vase or a piece of wall art. In the bedroom, softer colours and tactile finishes such as faux fur and tapestry make the bed feel inviting; browse our bedroom collection for more ideas. Cushion covers also bring comfort to hallway benches, window seats, garden rooms and home offices.
Changing covers with the seasons
Because covers are quick to swap and easy to store, they are the simplest way to refresh a room through the year. In autumn and winter, bring in faux fur, velvet and deeper mustard, taupe and black tones, and pair them with one of our throws. In spring and summer, switch to lighter cream and gold jacquards or fresh teal embroidery.
Cushion covers as gifts
A pair of cushion covers with matching pad inserts makes a thoughtful, complete gift for a housewarming, birthday or new home. A statement piece such as the Rose Bouquet Tapestry or the Equestrian Horse cover feels special on its own, while a set of cream and gold covers is an easy gift for anyone who loves a neutral, elegant home.
