Lovely soft cushion and excellent print. Very pleased with it. - Richard, London
Gothic cushion - soft, durable, made for everyday comfort and available up to 24" x 24".
The structured arrangement of carved stone detail brings a unique and characterful element to soft furnishings. Ideal for darker or more eclectic interiors, it adds texture and visual interest while maintaining a muted, natural palette that works well alongside wood, stone, and neutral tones.
Inside St Martin’s Church in Burton Agnes, the table tomb of Sir Walter Griffith, who died in 1487, is adorned with a dense arrangement of carved skulls and bones. This form of decoration reflects the medieval concept of memento mori, a reminder of mortality intended to encourage reflection on faith and the transient nature of life. Such imagery was often incorporated into church monuments of the late 15th century, combining skilled craftsmanship with symbolic meaning that would have been widely understood at the time.
In this image, the full panel of carvings is presented within its stone frame, revealing the layered composition in its entirety. The overlapping forms of skulls and bones create a structured yet intricate design, with subtle shifts in tone emphasising depth and age. The surrounding architectural border anchors the scene, while natural light brings out the texture and detail, reflecting the precision of the original artwork.
This decorative cushion offers a simple way to introduce colour, texture and character to your living space. Printed with your chosen image and finished with quality materials, it combines everyday comfort with distinctive photographic design.
The cushion cover is available in either soft faux suede or linen, both chosen for their durability and refined appearance. Each fabric provides a different look and feel, allowing you to select the option that best suits your interior style.
Your image is reproduced using high-quality dye sublimation printing, producing crisp detail and vibrant colour that resists fading over time. Designs can be printed on one side or both sides, giving you flexibility in how the cushion is displayed.
The removable cover features a discreet zip and can be machine washed at 30°C, making it easy to keep the cushion looking fresh with everyday use.
Each cushion is supplied with a plush virgin fibre insert, providing soft yet supportive comfort whether used as a sofa cushion, scatter cushion, or bedroom accent.
