throw pillow

Decorative couch cushion

A throw pillow is a small decorative pillow placed on sofas, chairs, or beds for visual appeal rather than head support.

Unlike sleeping pillows, throw pillows come in varied shapes, fabrics, and patterns, often chosen to complement room décor: She arranged the throw pillows on the couch after vacuuming.
