These were a excellent purchase.  They are covered in a durable looking fabric, nicely tufted, comfortable, and look amazingly inviting.  The ties are nice and long, and hold the cushion securely.  The fabric has a slight textural stripe that gives the cushion even more of a richness.  I ordered these in black; it is somewhat of a very dark grey to black, very attractive, and great for not showing dust or dirt.  I plan to buy more in the future.
