Their durable design ensures that they maintain their supportive quality and appearance over time, providing a dependable, easy-care solution for those seeking both comfort and convenience.
A Note on Back Cushions
At George Smith, all of our back cushions are filled with 80% feather and 20% down, as the weight on back cushions is lighter than on seat cushions. The feather and down blend provides a soft, luxurious feel while allowing the cushions to maintain their shape and loft.
