Product Insights
Simons Maison's Soft Velvet Drape Round Cushion is a 44 cm (17.25 in) round cotton-velvet accent, in stock at 39 CAD (24.95 on sale) with 4 reviews, a Canadian exclusive from a Quebec City family-run house since 1840, positioned mid-range in the Simons Maison home range. Its point of view is a single round cushion—or two per sofa as the practical ceiling—used to break a row of square pillows and not a matched set; at 17.25 in it layers in front of standard 18–22 in squares, and the 44 cm size is mid-range of standard 14–20 in formats. The promise is soft, breathable cotton velvet that absorbs moisture and stays dry where polyester velvet goes clammy, recovers its pile after crushing better than silk velvet, pills and sheds less than synthetic blends, and holds its shape over a medium-firm recycled polyester fill, with light finger and crush marks brushing out of the short dense pile and nap direction shifting the look from smooth/light to deep/dark. Four colourways—Off White neutral plus mint, dusky pink, and corn pastels—are all in stock at the same price with no tint premium, and pastels are styled as soft accents for a nursery or girl's room. The main tradeoff is care and durability: the cover is sewn shut and non-removable, spot clean only by blotting with no rubbing, washing, or dry cleaning because damp cotton velvet loses 20–25% strength; never steam or iron because heat permanently flattens the pile; draped texture may flatten in high-use areas though regular fluffing helps; and compared with polyester velvet, this cotton cover is the softer, more breathable pick but less abrasion-resistant. Odor is a category limitation rather than curing foam: the recycled-PET fill can have a new-cushion smell peaking in 24–72 hours, airflow clears it, warmth and humidity speed the fade, fragrance sprays add VOCs, and a buyer reported a chemical smell strong enough to keep it off a child's bed at first, so it must be aired out rather than washed.
Verified claims
- Breathability
- Cotton velvet absorbs moisture and breathes, staying dry where polyester velvet goes clammy.
- Pile recovery
- Cotton pile springs back after being crushed, recovering better than silk velvet under leaning.
- Nap direction
- Stroke the pile with the nap and it reads smooth and light; against it, deeper and darker.
- Pile wear
- Cotton velvet pile pills and sheds less than synthetic blends; wear shows as compacted nap, not fuzz.
- Cleaning methods
- Spot clean only by blotting: no rubbing, washing or dry cleaning — damp cotton velvet loses 20-25% strength.
- Cover removability
- Cover is sewn shut and not removable.
- Pile care
- Never steam or iron it: heat flattens the cotton pile permanently; revive crushed nap by hand.
- Fill firmness
- The 100% recycled polyester fill is medium-firm: supportive yet plush.
- Shape retention
- Buyers report the velvet cover holds its shape without sagging.
- Drape flattening
- The draped, pleated texture may flatten in high-use areas, but regular fluffing helps maintain appearance.
- Shape contrast
- One round cushion among squares breaks the boxy all-square look of a sofa; it is intended as a decorative accent on sofas, chairs, or beds.
- Layering
- At 17.25 inches (44 cm) it sits in front of standard 18-22 inch square pillows.
- Finger marks
- Light finger and crush marks brush out of the short, dense cotton pile.
- Abrasion resistance
- Polyester velvet resists rubbing better; this cotton cover is the softer, more breathable pick.
- Odor removal
- Cover is sewn shut and spot clean only: a new-cushion smell must be aired out, not washed.
- Off-gassing
- The fill is finished recycled-PET fiber, not curing foam; any new smell peaks in 24-72 hours.
- Airing out
- Airflow clears the smell; warmth and humidity speed the fade, and fragrance sprays add VOCs.
- Odor reports
- A buyer reported a chemical smell strong enough to keep it off a child's bed at first.
- Size
- One 44 cm (17.25 in) round in every colourway, mid-range of the standard 14-20 inch format.
- Arrangement
- One round breaks a row of squares; two per sofa is the practical ceiling.
- Colourway choice
- One neutral Off White against three pastel shades — Mint/Pistachio Green, Dusky Pink, and Corn/Vanilla Yellow — that make colour the point.
- Palette styling
- A reviewer styled a pastel shade as a soft accent in a daughter's flower-themed room.
- Colour options
- Four colourways: Off White as the neutral, plus mint, dusky pink and corn pastels.
- Design heritage
- A Simons Maison exclusive designed in Canada, family-run from Quebec City since 1840.
- Price positioning
- 39 CAD list, 24.95 on sale — mid-range in the Simons Maison home range.
- Quantity
- One round cushion interrupts a row of squares; buy one or two, not a matched set.
- Cover material
- The cover is 100% cotton velvet.

| Soft Velvet Drape Round Cushion 44 Cm In Diameter: Choose this if you want a decorative round cushion with a soft velvet feel and a draped look: it measures 17.25 inches (44 cm) in diameter, has radial pleats converging at a covered center button, a piped edge, and comes in one size with a 100% cotton cover and recycled polyester fill in colors like Off White, Mint/Pistachio Green, Dusky Pink, and Corn/Vanilla Yellow. Note that it is spot clean only, so it suits low-wear accent use rather than everyday washable comfort.[1,2] | Billiards Ball Velvety Knit Cushion 40 Cm In Diameter: Choose this if you want a playful statement piece: this Simons Maison exclusive, designed in Canada, is a round 15.75-inch (40 cm) cushion shaped and printed like the iconic black billiards 8-ball, with a raised white tufted circle and crescent applique. Its soft velvety knit cover (100% polyester) has a fine nap and slight sheen, and the fill is 100% recycled polyester. Note that photos show a slightly puckered stitched seam around the perimeter where the fabric panels meet.[3,4,5] | Soft Cotton Velvet Removable-Cover Cushion 50 X 50 Cm: Choose this if you want a soft cotton velvet accent cushion in a 50 by 50 cm (20 x 20 inch) square, with an insert included so you don't have to source a compatible fill, and a hidden side zip with a removable, 100% cotton cover. It comes in seven solid colors and, per the review analysis, has been described by reviewers as amazingly soft and of nice quality. Note that professional cleaning is recommended, and some reviewers reported the delivered shade may not match online photos or existing velvet decor, so it may suit you best as a standalone accent if you need an exact match.[6] |

Cozy, firm, off gassing
Beautiful colour. Sturdy/firm not in a bad way. Love it for my daughter’s flower themed room. Strong chemical smell though and no removable cover so don’t want it in her bed for the forseeable future. Not sure how long it will take to off gas.
