The cushion back is our Billie Jean Fabric, made using upcycled pre-consumer denim waste. This waste is ground back into fibre and woven into our threads and woven into fabric. Using no chemicals and no dyes. Made by The New Denim Project, a project within a 3rd generation family textile factory promoting conscious consumption and investment in sustainable materials.

Please Note - Bille Jean Fabric is upcycled denim fabric that will perform as most blue jeans, which have the possibility to fade a bit during the first wash and have a small amount of colour transfer.
