Jan Constantine Games montage cushion

Cushion

The market is inspired with Olympic tie-in designs at the moment, most of which are a bit, well, uninspiring. This Jan Constantine Games montage cushion is one of the more interesting designs currently available. 

Most of the interest comes from the fact it uses classic posters from other Games. So, there's the poster from the last time the UK hosted the event back in the 40s but also posters from Atlanta, Toyko and Paris giving an idea of the range of artwork that have been produced to promote the event. The posters are reproduced in black and white and the cushion is finished with a classy spot of black piping. 

The cushion costs £42.
