PILLOW / CUSHION INSERT SIZE GUIDE

Pro Tips for Plush, Luxury Throw Pillows


Want that full, high-end look for your throw pillows? Here’s the secret: Always go for an insert that’s 1 to 4 inches larger than your pillow cover (check the guide below!). A too-small insert means a sad, saggy pillow—definitely not the vibe!


For the best results, we recommend using down-feather inserts. Unlike polyester or down alternatives, they have that perfect ‘give,’ letting you shape and fluff them effortlessly for a premium fit.
