Patra Indigo Indoor/Outdoor Kidney Pillow

Measuring 19 inches wide and 12 inches high, this pillow is sized to act as a central lumbar accent on an armchair or as a layering piece on a sofa. Its 6-inch depth provides significant loft and comfort without taking up too much of the seating area, making it an ideal choice for both large sectionals and more compact balcony furniture.

Yes, it is specifically engineered for high-moisture environments. The Sunbrella fabric is naturally resistant to mold and mildew. While the material is water-resistant and effectively repels light rain, it remains breathable, which allows it to air-dry quickly. In humid coastal areas, this breathability is essential for preventing the moisture buildup that can lead to a musty odor.

Based on our expertise with these performance materials, we recommend a simple maintenance routine: brush off any loose dirt or pollen before it becomes embedded, then spray a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water onto the fabric. Gently rinse until all soap residue is removed and allow the pillow to air-dry completely. For long-term care, we recommend bringing pillows indoors or using furniture covers during heavy rain or the off-season.

This pillow is crafted with Sunbrella fabric, which is made of 100% solution-dyed acrylic. Unlike traditional fabrics where color is only applied to the surface, Sunbrella fibers are saturated with UV-stabilized pigments all the way to the core. This construction ensures the deep indigo color remains vibrant and resists the bleaching effects of intense, direct sunlight over several seasons.

This pillow features a rectangular "kidney" or lumbar shape (19"w x 12"h), which provides targeted support for the lower back. This is particularly beneficial for deep-seated outdoor sofas or club chairs, where a standard square pillow may not provide enough ergonomic support to prevent slouching during long periods of relaxation.

Absolutely. While durable enough for the patio, Sunbrella fabric is designed to have a soft hand-feel that is comparable to premium indoor upholstery. Its sophisticated Ikat pattern and clean knife-edge finish allow it to transition seamlessly to an indoor sunroom or living room, offering the added benefit of being easy to clean in high-traffic households with pets or children.
