velvet cushion

Fill materials vary by listing and include down-alternative blends (e.g., 80% down alternative noted), polyester-based fills (examples list 80% polyester or 100% polyester fiber), and 100% polyester inserts.

Many velvet covers use hidden zippers for removable covers; some decorative pillows have sewn seams and are not removable.

Loft varies by style: some chair cushions list about 3 inches of padding, while throw pillows may list around 6 inches or a 6–8 inch loft. Expect options roughly between 3 inches and 6–8 inches depending on the product.

Covers are described as velvet or polyester velvet; some listings list textile content as '80% velvet' while others state 100% polyester. Terminology and exact fiber content vary by product description.

Some velvet pillows are reversible — for example, velvet on one side with faux-shearling on the reverse — and some cushions feature a reversible back piece.
