Fabrics We Use at Arlem
3 min read
We're picky about fabrics. Every material we use has to earn its place: it needs to feel good, look good, and last. Here's what goes into an Arlem cushion.
100% Oeko-Tex Certified Linen
Linen is a hallmark of quality and sustainability, and we only use the best. Our linen is 100% Oeko-Tex certified, meaning it's free from harmful chemicals. Safe for you and the environment.

Renowned for its breathability, durability, and timeless appeal, linen offers a unique blend of comfort and elegance. Its hypoallergenic properties and ease of maintenance make it an easy choice for cushion covers. The natural fibres keep you cool in warm weather, ensuring a comfortable rest, while the fabric's strength ensures longevity and minimal environmental impact.
Available colours: Natural (warm beige), Stone (grey-beige), White (off-white)
View product →Bouclé
Bouclé, with its looped and curled yarn, brings a unique texture and aesthetic to our range. This fabric is known for its quality and visual interest, adding a dimension of sophistication to any bedroom setup.

Its durability and comfort make it an excellent choice for creating statement pieces that are as functional as they are beautiful. The textured surface catches light beautifully and adds depth to minimalist spaces.
Available colours: Ivory (creamy white), Ecru (natural cream), Umber (warm brown)

The Insert
The shell is high quality cotton. The fill is very high quality microfibre that stays plump for years. Comfortable, allergy-free, and vegan.

Designed in Adelaide
Every Arlem cushion is designed in Adelaide by Emily, an interior designer. We select the fabrics, set the specs, and personally check every batch before it ships. Quality you can feel, from someone who uses one every night.
