Well they will do for now and they look okay at a distance, but had I noticed these throw pillows in a store I definitely would've just walked right by.    Considering the price, these pillows are an example of how promotional pictures can be deceiving.   I ordered the turquoise/grey and another in purple.   The purple is more pink with plum highlights.  Reading the description once again I do notice "damask print" and indeed the damask design is merely dye stamped on.  The material is quite course and rough.   The cover is entirely sewed on, no zipper to remove for washing and anyway the instructions say "dry or spot clean only".  That's probably because the stamped damask design would run.
