Like the smaller throw pillow,  the bolster is beautiful and beautifully made in red, gold and soft gray-green tapestry fabric.  We bought it originally for our bedroom where we thought it would be nice for sitting.  Alas, since it is too too gorgeous the bolster and the throw pillow will reside in state on the LR sofa where guests can see and use them.  It also goes perfectly with our LR gray-green walls!  The only possible drawback is the the bolster pillow is about twice the size of the throw pillow. Great purchase otherwise. MS
