WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT
The Snakeshead Chenille Cushion brings one of William Morris's most recognisable botanical designs into the home with a wonderfully rich and tactile finish. Originally created in 1876, the Snakeshead pattern takes inspiration from the distinctive Snakeshead fritillary, combining stylised flowers and curling foliage in an intricate repeating design.
Woven in soft chenille, the detailed pattern has beautiful depth and texture, while the feather-filled inner gives the cushion a relaxed and comfortable finish. Perfect for adding a touch of Morris & Co. heritage to sofas, armchairs and beds.
THE SNAKESHEAD DESIGN
Snakeshead was designed by William Morris in 1876 and is based on the Snakeshead fritillary, a distinctive wildflower native to parts of Britain. The stylised botanical forms create a wonderfully organic pattern with the intricate character associated with Morris's designs.
SOFT CHENILLE TEXTURE
The chenille construction gives the cushion a soft, tactile surface while helping to bring out the depth and detail of the Snakeshead pattern. Its textured finish makes it particularly effective when layered with plain velvet, linen and other woven cushions.
FEATHER-FILLED COMFORT
Supplied with a feather-filled inner, the cushion has a soft, comfortable feel and can be plumped and styled beautifully across sofas, armchairs and beds.
