Choosing velvet for upholstery
Velvet Upholstery for Sofas, Chairs & Furniture
Velvet brings depth, softness and rich colour to upholstered furniture. From contemporary sofas and armchairs to dining chairs and occasional pieces, it can create anything from a quiet tonal finish to a strong decorative statement.
When choosing velvet for furniture, consider how the piece will be used as well as colour, texture and handle. Checking the individual fabric specification and ordering a sample before purchasing can help you find the right option for your project.

Samples & practical advice
Choosing Velvet Fabric for Upholstery
Not every velvet has the same specification, so always check that the fabric you choose is suitable for the intended piece of furniture. Durability may be particularly important for sofas, dining chairs and furniture used frequently.
Velvet also responds distinctively to light because of its pile. Sampling the fabric allows you to see its true colour and texture in the room where it will eventually be used.
For patterned velvet or larger furniture pieces, check required quantities and pattern placement with your upholsterer before ordering.
