Are your materials sustainably sourced?

Wherever possible, yes. We prioritise materials that are responsibly harvested, recycled, or upcycled. Each product page shares details about what's used in that piece.

Because beautiful things shouldn't come at someone else's expense. Every piece should carry respect for the maker, the materials, and for you. We pay fair wages without compromise and share the real stories behind our craft. That's how we create decor worth owning and keeping.

Do you offer gift notes and wrapping?

We offer beautiful gift wrapping for just £4 and complimentary handwritten notes to make your gift even more special. Just choose the gift option at checkout or drop us an email.

Do you offer trade or wholesale pricing?

Absolutely. We love working with interior designers, stylists and businesses. Email us at hello@aloraa.co.uk to chat about trade partnerships or bulk orders.

I'm not South Asian - is it okay to buy or gift these pieces?

Honestly, yes - whether that's for yourself or someone you care about. Every item at ALORAA comes with a real story: who made it, where, using skills passed down through generations. When you bring one of these into your home or give one to someone you love, you're not just acquiring an object. You're sharing that story. That's not appropriation - it's how craft traditions survive.

A home that feels like you is built one detail at a time. This cushion is one of those details - the kind that quietly changes how a room feels when you walk in.

The leaf embroidery is hand-stitched using a traditional Indian technique passed down for generations. Each piece is made in small batches due to the slow, intricate nature of the craft. In Indian symbolism, leaves represent growth and prosperity - a quiet sense of that meaning lives in the detail.

Luxury You Can Touch

Bring character, culture, and a touch of nature to a room with these intricately decorated cushions. Inspired by the Hindu culture’s love for leaves and crafted by thread work, these covers are gorgeous to look at and equally comfortable to lean on.

Traditionally, no ceremony - from weddings to blessing a home - is complete without the inclusion of leaves. Seen as a symbol of growth, prosperity and spiritual goodness, the connection to the natural world subtly brings the great outdoors into your home.

Handcrafted & Supports Craftsmanship

Beautifully-stitched by Waseem from New Delhi in India, this technique involves manually navigating a pen-like needle to create stunning patterns. Needlework has existed in India since 2000 BC – the method has been adapted and passed down many generations. However, artisans specialising in this craft are rapidly being replaced by the increase of machine-made alternatives.

Soft and Breathable Fabric

India’s duet with the cotton industry dates back over 4,500 years ago. Overtime Indian artisans and traders have refined their skills and have since been one of the biggest producers of cotton - so much so that in ancient Greece and Babylon, ’India’ was used as an abbreviation for ‘cotton’.

This style is made by stitching acrylic thread onto chambray cotton which is known for its soft and breathable qualities.

Durable & Easy to Clean

• This cover fits an 18 x 18 inch insert. For a plump, full look we recommend going up to a 20 x 20 inch pad.
• Hand wash in cool water only.
• Do not machine wash - this will damage the embroidery and tassels.
• Reshape and lay flat to dry naturally.
• Do not tumble dry or wring.
• Iron on a low heat, inside out, once dry.
• Zip up before washing to protect the fabric.
