Frequently bought together
Same fabric, made together, shipped together.
A round papasan chair cushion made to the size of your frame, so it fills the bowl instead of sliding around in it. Choose Sunbrella for a covered porch or sunroom that gets weather, or Warwick upholstery fabric for a living room or reading corner.
How to measure a papasan frame
Measure straight across the top rim of the bowl, from outside edge to outside edge, then measure again at a right angle. Use the larger number as the diameter and round up to the nearest ¼″. Most frames come out between 44″ and 52″. If your old cushion still fits well, you can measure it flat instead. More tips are in our measuring guide.
What you choose
- Diameter from 10″ to 60″
- Thickness up to 6″ (4″ to 6″ suits most papasan frames)
- Fabric: any Sunbrella (outdoor) or Warwick (indoor) color; order fabric swatches first if you are unsure
- Foam and wrap
- Ties, piping and other finishing options
Foam and fabric
A thicker cushion sits higher in the bowl and feels softer to sink into; a thinner one keeps the curve of the frame. A Dacron wrap adds about 1/4″ and a rounder look. Sunbrella fabric is solution-dyed acrylic that resists fading and mildew. Warwick is for indoor use only.
Delivery and warranty
Every cushion is cut to within ±0.5″ of your sizes and most orders ship in 2–3 weeks, with free standard shipping. We send a spec sheet for approval before we cut. Custom cushions are made to order and can't be returned, so check your measurements twice.
Fit guarantee: we cut every cushion to within ±0.5″ of the measurements you send. If yours arrives outside that, we remake it free. See our warranty and fit guarantee.

Seat cushions
Measure the seat side to side and front to back, between arms if there are any. Round up to the nearest ¼″. For a tapered seat, measure the front and back widths.
Back cushions
Measure from the seat to where you want the cushion to stop. Width is usually the same as the seat.
Chaise and Adirondack
Measure the full length laid flat, then the back section from the top to the hinge point where the back rest bends.
Covers only
Measure your foam, not the old cover. We cut the cover to fit snugly.
Pillows
Order the cover the size of your insert. Our micro-fibre inserts are sized to fill the cover.
