The Cutting Table · a checklist answer
Which color number do I pick to get the floor cushion in your listing photo?
Also asked as:What color number is the off-white cushion?Is the color in the photo 14?
A photograph is a promise made in borrowed light. The number behind it is what the workshop actually cuts, so that is the thing to ask for.
SaveThe quick answer
Name the floor cushion listing photo you like, and the workshop tells you its exact color number; order that number and your cushion comes in that same color. Burnt orange velvet is 14, the blue velvet floor sofa 38, pink velvet 27 and green linen 22. Similar shades carry different numbers, so confirm before you order.

A fabric reads one way at noon and another at dusk. Mention your light, and the workshop will weigh it with you. — Élodie
Leave your details and the workshop will call you to confirm measurements, fabric, foam and piping. No prices, dates or payment on this page: it is a request, not an order.
Five checks before you pick a number
- Point to the exact photo: the main image, the third image, the stacked cushions.
- Ask the workshop which number that photo was made in.
- Name the fabric with the number; velvet, linen and soft fabric each have their own chart.
- Ask for a close-up when two shades sit close, like 21 water green and 38 blue.
- If a color isn't in the dropdown, pick any option and name the color you want in the note.

Why one number looks different in two photos
Daylight never lies; your screen sometimes does. A floor cushion shot beside a morning window and the same fabric shot at dusk can look like cousins rather than twins. Cream linen shows it best: the photos could be 1 or 19, and 1 looks brighter in real life than on screen.
The floor cushion pages show the shapes, and the screen versus daylight Pattern explains the drift. When in doubt, ask for a close-up of the exact fabric code.
Which photo made you fall for the cushion, my friends: the sunlit one or the lamplit one?
Cream linen in the floor cushion photos is number 1 or 19, and number 1 looks brighter in real life than on screen, so ask which one the photo shows.

Buyer questions
- A common question
Which color number is the floor cushion in the listing photo?
The workshop's answerThe workshop identifies it on request: the burnt orange is 14, its best seller; the blue is 38 rather than 21; the pink velvet is 27; cream white is 13; and a rust-brown photo is Tobacco. If a color isn't in the options, pick any and name the one you want in the note.
- A common question
The floor couch in the photo is green. Which number is that?
The workshop's answerThe green floor couch is Khaki, in the soft fabric. On the velvet charts, 14 is amber to orange-rust, 34 emerald, 36 dark green and 4 pale gray, while teal is 38 on one chart and 20 on another. Linen 5 is green and linen 19 is cream-white.
- A common question
What number is the off-white in the stacked cushion photo?
The workshop's answerNumber 19. Picking 19 gets you the same color as the photo, and there's also a whiter option if you want it brighter.
- A common question
The color options only show numbers. Where's the chart?
The workshop's answerThe numbered chart is in the listing photos, often the second, third or last image, and the workshop will message it to you. Each fabric type has its own chart, and you can ask for close-ups of any number.
Questions buyers ask next
Is velvet 14 the same shade as linen 14?
Don't assume so. Each fabric type has its own numbered chart, so the same number can mean a different shade from one chart to the next. Write the fabric with the number, such as 'velvet 14', and confirm it against the listing photo.
What if the color in the photo isn't in the dropdown?
Pick any color option to complete the order and name the color you actually want in the note. The workshop checks every code before cutting, and if the name or number is unclear, it messages you before production.
Is the yellow floor sofa in the photos a true yellow?
No, it's mustard rather than a bright yellow. In the same way, a rust-brown sofa photo is the color called Tobacco. Ask for a close-up before ordering if your room needs a particular yellow or brown.
