Weaver Green
Diamond Teal Cushion

Description

Introducing the Weaver Green Diamond Teal Cushion. These new and improved teal diamond cushions feature the same classic design but with a new lighter-weight, tightly woven yarn that is softer, cosier and offers the smooth feel of cotton. Perfect for adding colour to living rooms, bedrooms, summer houses and gardens, each Diamond Teal Cushion is made from approximately 300 recycled plastic bottles and benefits from a machine washable cover that can be used inside and out.

Made entirely from recycled plastic bottles, these fabulous teal scatter cushions look and feel like a soft cotton, but are easy to clean and much more versatile. 

Recently updated from their original wool-like fabric to a new lightweight yarn, these cotton-feel Teal Diamond Cushions are soft, stain-resistant, machine washable and great for indoor and outdoor use. A perfect match for our heavyweight Diamond blankets, combine a scattering of these gorgeous cushions to complete the look.

Perfect for pet owners, red wine lovers and beachgoers too, our cushions are mould-resistant and easy to clean with removable covers that can simply be popped in the washing machine at 40 degrees. Moths won't eat them and dust mites won't live in them, so they are great for allergy sufferers as well.

The Weaver Green Diamond Teal Cushion. Made entirely from recycled plastic bottles – nothing else!

Made entirely from up to 3000 recycled plastic bottles and with the soft feel of wool or Jute, Weaver Green rugs and textiles are machine washable, moth proof, easy to clean, mould resistant, UV stable, hardwearing and perfect for use indoors in kitchens, under dining tables, in bathrooms, hallways and outside on garden terraces and in summer houses.

Tasha and Barney Green were travelling in Asia and found a very rudimentary fishing rope made from unravelled plastic bottles being used to tether boats. Barney has a long history in the flooring industry, working with weaving houses throughout the world to develop and sell sisal, coir and wool rugs and fitted flooring, and Tasha runs an organic drinks company and organic orchard, and has collected antique textiles for many years. With a strong environmental ethos, both Barney and Tasha felt that there was an opportunity to turn some of the 135 billion plastic bottles that end up in our seas and landfill each year, into beautiful, practical rugs and home textiles that offered a great environmental solution to recycling some of the existing plastic in the world, and in making our homes more beautiful at the same time.

The key challenge has been to turn hard plastic into the lovely soft open fibres that we have today, so that the yarn genuinely has the look and feel of wool. This process has taken 7 years to perfect, and we now have a robust, soft yarn that is machine washable, stain resistant, suitable for indoor and outdoor use and most importantly environmentally friendly.

We hand loom all our lovely textiles and use artisans throughout Europe, Scandinavia and Asia to make gorgeous, soft handmade rugs, throws and bags.
