Aruna Microchecks Organic Cotton Cushion Cover – Handwoven12x18 Lumbar by Bloc à Main

Crafted for Comfort, Designed with Purpose

The Aruna Cushion Cover is a result of slow, conscious creation. The organic cotton used is grown without chemical pesticides or synthetic inputs, making it not only gentle on the skin but also safer for the soil, water, and the artisan who works with it. Breathable, soft, and naturally hypoallergenic, it is ideal for mindful homes and thoughtful living.

The deep maroon tone, achieved through natural dyeing methods, is paired with unbleached white to create a microchecked weave—a minimal, elegant design that brings quiet structure to your home.

The Weaving: A Tradition in Motion

Woven by hand on traditional looms, the microcheck pattern is a classic textile expression—clean, subtle, and timeless. Each cushion is crafted by artisan families in India, whose deep knowledge of loom work and dyeing has been passed down over generations.

The process begins with handspun organic cotton yarns, which are then naturally dyed using plant-based and mineral sources to achieve the earthy maroon hue. The yarns are then woven in alternating lines, creating fine check patterns that are uniform but never machine-perfect—just enough to remind you that this was made by hands, not mass production.

Styling Tips: Quiet Luxury for Every Space

The Aruna cushion is incredibly versatile, with its compact lumbar size and balanced color story. Whether your home is earthy, modern, or traditional, this piece brings warmth without excess.

1. Warm Minimalist Living Rooms

Layer Aruna on a neutral or cream sofa for a look that is restrained yet rich. The maroon adds just enough depth, while the checks offer quiet visual interest. Pair with beige, olive, or soft grey accents for balance.

2. Bedroom Elegance

Use Aruna as a statement lumbar cushion on an all-white or ivory bedspread. Place it in front of larger pillows for layered softness. It pairs beautifully with soft cotton or linen bedding and brass bedside lamps.

3. Ethnic Fusion Corners

For more traditional spaces, style Aruna alongside khadi cushions, wood furniture, and handloom throws. Add terracotta planters or brass décor for an Indian-modern living corner.

4. Festive Touches

The maroon tone fits beautifully into festive décor for Diwali, Raksha Bandhan, or weddings. Complement it with natural flowers, copper or gold accents, and traditional floor seating.
