Stylish Handmade Macrame Cushion Cover

What is the design on this cover?

Chunky crossed cords form large diamonds across the front, laid over a base of curled, swirled ridges. The bold diamonds give it a strong graphic outline, and the swirled base underneath fills each diamond with texture.

How heavy does the texture look?

It has a fuller, chunkier look, because the cords are thick and the diamonds are large. That makes it a statement cushion: one or two on a sofa are enough to add texture, and it shows up clearly even from across the room.

What size cushion goes inside?

The cover measures 16 x 16 inches, so pair it with a 16-inch square cushion insert. Measure your existing cushion first so the large diamonds sit neatly across the front of the cover.

How do I mix it with other cushions?

Let it be the textured one in the group. Surround it with plain cushions in solid colours, or with a flat-weave print, so the chunky diamonds stand out. Neutral sofas in grey, beige or white show the relief well, while a dark sofa makes the cream cords stand out.

How do I look after this cover?

Spot clean with a damp cloth, or hand wash it in cold water using a mild detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water and let it air dry flat or hung up. Machine washing and tumble drying are best avoided.

Who knots it?

It is handcrafted in cotton at the Indiehaat Macrame Unit in Maharashtra under master artisan Brijbala. The chunky diamond pattern is knotted by hand, so small differences between pieces are a natural part of it.
