Outdoor Bedford Pillow - Stone

Details at a Glance

Full-sun patios destroy most cushion fabrics within a single season, but solution-dyed polypropylene is engineered to hold color and structure under continuous UV exposure. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Bedford Pillow in Stone, a 22 x 22 inch fade-resistant outdoor cushion, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Hand-cut and sewn in California, it pairs water-resistant performance with a hidden-zipper construction that keeps moisture out of the insert.

How Well Does 100% Polypropylene Handle UV and Rain?

Polypropylene fiber resists UV degradation far longer than cotton or untreated synthetics because the pigment is locked into the fiber during extrusion, not applied afterward. This pillow sheds light rain rather than absorbing it, and the hydrophobic surface discourages mildew colonization even in humid climates. Expect multi-year color retention in full sun, though all outdoor fabrics lighten gradually after prolonged exposure. The removable cover lets you pull the insert before heavy storms to prevent saturation over time.

Do You Need to Bring It Indoors for Winter?

You can leave this pillow on a covered porch through moderate winters, but it's not designed to sit buried in snow or submerged in standing water for weeks. The water-resistant shell repels brief showers, not season-long saturation. Store it in a dry garage or deck box during your region's wettest months, and remove the cover for a quick wash if mildew starts to form. The separate insert system means you can replace just the fill if the shell outlasts it, extending the pillow's total lifespan.

Where Does This Work Best in an Outdoor Room?

This 22-inch square suits any standard-depth seating, from sectionals to lounge chairs to porch swings. The neutral stone grey anchors mixed-pattern schemes without competing for attention, and it layers cleanly with brighter geometrics from the outdoor pillows collection when you want contrast. Pair it with metal frames on a modern deck or tuck it into wicker on a traditional veranda--the colorway complements both. For coordinated finishing touches, browse the outdoor accessories collection or add seating from the outdoor accent chairs range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pillow fade in direct afternoon sun?

The solution-dyed polypropylene resists UV degradation far better than surface-printed fabrics, maintaining color saturation for multiple seasons in full sun. All outdoor textiles lighten gradually over years, but this construction delivers multi-year performance before noticeable fade.

Can this stay outside in a coastal location with salt air?

Yes--the polypropylene fabric and hidden zipper hardware resist corrosion from salt spray. Rinse the cover periodically if the pillow sits near breaking surf to prevent salt crust buildup on the fiber.

Can this pillow get rained on?

Light rain beads off the water-resistant shell, but prolonged heavy storms can eventually soak through to the insert. Pull it under cover during downpours to extend its lifespan, or store it in a deck box between uses.

How do you clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden closure, remove the cover, and spot-clean with mild soap and water. Air-dry completely before reassembling to prevent mildew from forming inside the pillow.

Is the insert removable?

Yes--the separate cover and insert system lets you wash the shell independently or replace just the fill if it compresses before the fabric wears out.

Does free shipping include assembly or setup?

Free curbside delivery to the continental USA is included. The pillow arrives finished and ready to use--no assembly required.
