These are really well made pillow covers, with an hidden zipper for easy access. My old 17" square throw pillows were looking old & tired, and not made of a fabric that could be cleaned easily, so I got these to refresh them. These are so great, I'm going to get more for the other throw pillows as well! The hidden zipper is a really nice feature, and the fabric is very soft and pretty. I don't think mine are as bright as the site picture, but in different lighting they do tend to brighten/mute accordingly so it will probably depend on the room they're in.
