Recent 5-Star Review from Karl K.
✭✭✭✭✭ Seed Pods pillow on brown leather couch
"We have a Prairie-style house with a lot of dark trim and furniture. This pillow fits our home design and breaks up the dark wood and leather nicely. We haven’t had it long enough to see how it holds up to wear & tear but, if it proves durable, we will order several more."
