Indoor throw pillows fade and mildew after one season on the patio because their fabrics can't handle UV or moisture -- this one is built specifically to stay outside. The D.V. Kap Outdoor Palmyra Pillow in black, a 22-inch square weather-resistant pillow handcrafted in California from solution-dyed polyester, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. It won't soak through in rain or lose its color by August.

How Does Solution-Dyed Polyester Handle Full Sun and Rain?

Solution-dyed polyester embeds the black pigment into the fiber during manufacturing, so UV exposure can't strip it out the way it does with surface-dyed fabrics. This pillow resists fading even under daily full-sun exposure. The polyester itself repels water rather than absorbing it, so the cover sheds rain and dries quickly afterward. You won't see the mildew or waterline stains that ruin standard indoor pillows left on uncovered furniture.

Do You Need to Bring It Inside Every Time It Rains?

No -- the water-resistant fabric repels moisture and dries fast after a storm. If the pillow does get soaked in prolonged downpour, unzip the removable cover and let both the cover and insert air-dry to prevent mildew from setting in. For off-season storage, pull the insert out, wash the cover with mild soap and water, and store both pieces in a dry bin or garage. The hidden zipper makes it easy to separate and clean.

Where Does This Work Best on a Deck or Patio?

Use it anywhere you want back support or a layered look -- outdoor sofas, lounge chairs, benches, porch swings, or poolside furniture. The 22-inch square size gives you enough visual presence to anchor a seating arrangement on its own or pair with other outdoor pillows in contrasting textures. It works on both covered patios and fully exposed deck furniture. Combine it with pieces from the outdoor accent chairs collection or add it to existing seating you've already styled with outdoor accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this pillow fade in direct sunlight?

No -- the solution-dyed polyester construction resists UV damage and holds its black color even with daily full-sun exposure.

Can this stay outside all year in coastal areas?

The water-resistant and fade-resistant fabric handles salt air and humidity, though you should still store it during prolonged winter wet seasons to protect the insert.

How do you clean the cover?

Unzip the hidden zipper, remove the cover, spot-clean with mild soap and water, and air-dry. The insert can be cleaned separately or replaced.

Does the pillow get heavy when it rains?

The polyester fabric repels water and dries quickly, so it won't stay waterlogged the way cotton or untreated fabrics do.

Is the insert included or sold separately?

The pillow includes both the removable cover and the insert, hand-cut and sewn to order in California.

Does this ship fully assembled?

Yes -- standard curbside delivery is free to the continental USA, and the pillow arrives ready to use.
