Part of our range of home furnishings made from authentic moquette fabric from the golden days of steam, this 40cm cushion features the design 'Blazing Sun' which could be found in rail rolling stock the length of the country in the last century and still features in many preserved coaches found in traffic at heritage steam railways to this day.
Featuring a plush duck feather inner and a hidden zip, this item stands out as something special in a home setting. This item is made from transport grade material and is therefore extremely hard-wearing and resistant to spills and stains. By its nature, moquette is a heavy fabric with a wonderfully tactile texture that has to be felt to be believed.

About the Design
This is one of the “Festival of Britain” group of designs, first introduced in 1951 for the new range of British Railways
Standard coaches (later known as the “Mark 1” fleet).
The main motif in this design is reminiscent of the “Sun’s rays” effect which was often used in the more exuberant Art Deco designs of the pre-war Jazz age.
