Parrot Ivory Artisan Embroidered Cushion Covers 16 × 16

The smallest change with the biggest effect.

The room people see first deserves better than tired cushions.

Nothing ages a living room like tired cushions 🏡

The fabric's gone thin. There's a tear on the seam. They've faded into the same beige as everything else. You don't need new cushions — the filling inside is usually fine. You need new covers.

✅ Slip over your existing cushions — keep the fillers you have
✅ Embroidered by hand, raised and textured, never printed
✅ Hidden zip — no visible fastening, clean from every angle
✅ Cotton-linen base, machine washable
✅ Changes the whole room for a fraction of new-cushion cost

Stitched by hand, one flower at a time

Every petal, stem and leaf is worked by an artisan with a needle — no machine, no print. Run a finger across it and you'll feel the thread standing up off the cloth. That's the difference you're paying for, and it's the difference guests notice without being able to name.

The cotton-linen base is chosen to carry it: sturdy enough to hold the embroidery flat, soft enough to lean on.

Handmade, so no two are identical

A stem sits a millimetre off. One flower is a shade fuller than its neighbour. These aren't flaws — they're the evidence that a person made this rather than a machine stamping out the thousandth copy. If you want two cushions that match to the pixel, buy printed ones. If you want a room that looks like someone chose things, buy these.

Check your filler size first

These fit a standard 16×16 inch (40×40 cm) cushion filler. Measure one of your existing cushions corner to corner before ordering.

Using a 16×16 filler? Perfect fit.
Filler is 18×18? Too tight — the zip will strain.
Filler is 14×14? The cover will sag and look loose.
No fillers at home? Order 16×16 inserts alongside — inexpensive and available everywhere.

Allow 1–2 cm variation between pieces. Handwork, not machine work.

On in a minute, washed in a cycle

Open the hidden zip, push the filler in, close it, fluff the corners. To wash: machine wash cold, separately, gentle cycle. No bleach. Tumble dry low or line dry in shade. Low iron on the reverse if needed — never directly on the embroidery.

Made by hand in India, sold from the City of Joy 💛

Great Happy works with artisan households across India — the people whose hands are in this product. Every set you buy sends money to one of them directly. That's the whole model, and it's why we can't make these by the ten thousand overnight.

You're not buying cushion covers. You're buying the five-minute version of redecorating.
