The Abigail Pink lumbar pillow from Trudie, cut long and low and finished with a ruffled edge. The shape is the point. A lumbar sits in front of a row of square pillows and breaks up the wall of matching cushions most sofas end up with, and because it is shallower it supports the small of your back instead of pushing you forward. Use it on a sofa, an armchair, a window seat, or at the front of a made bed, where one long pillow does more than two more squares would. The ruffle keeps it from reading severe, and the pink is soft enough to sit alongside cream, oatmeal, and plain wood.
What is a lumbar pillow? A lumbar pillow is a rectangular pillow, longer than it is tall, placed at the lower back for support or used as a decorative accent layered in front of square pillows. Common decorative lumbar sizes are around 12 by 20 and 14 by 20 inches.
