I love the fact that its faux fur ( no harming any animals ) but the pillow throw has the look and feel of real fur. Its absolutely gorgeous in my newly redecorated master bedroom courtesy of Wayfair. I bought a new comforter set and a new Serta Sealy 15" mattress that Serta and Wayfair teamed up and gave me white glove service ( brings new mattress in and places   it on the bed , takes old mattress and all packaging back with them to dispose of ) . This Faux fur throw pillow cover I choose to fill with a down filler pillow, although Wayfair has a wide variety of fillers , sizes and shapes of filler pillows at all price ranges to fit your budget. I defiantly give this smooth faux fur pillow cover a big thumbs up!
