Velvet has a suppleness, unlike any other fabric, making it a real style staple for your home. Velvet sofa really does look and feel the part. But we understand opting for a velvet couch, at first, might seem a little daunting. It’s a big step but here are the Top 5 Tips on buying a Velvet Sofa

1. Velvet is wonderfully comfortable. This means the seat has a blend of foam and fibre, making the sofas comfortable and supportive while also being able to recover when the seat is vacated. 
   
   
2. Did you know a synthetic velvet, such as ones made from high-quality polyester, are less susceptible to marking and fading? So you get the real look and feel of velvet but with added protection. A velvet sofa is much easier to clean and maintain than you may think. For the best results when cleaning, try to act as soon as the spill or mark occurs. This is because it’s far easier to clean velvet before the mark sinks through to the base cloth. All you need to use is a soft cloth and some warm soapy water, rubbing in a circular motion. Then, leave the material to air dry or use a hairdryer to speed up the process. 

3. Velvet instantly gives a room a more luxurious look and style due to the qualities of the fabric. The colour of a velvet sofa also has far more depth than flat cotton or linen fabric. This makes the colour look wonderfully rich. Velvet also looks great alongside a mix of finishes, from sleek brass and matt black to shiny gloss and chrome.

 

4. Velvet is so wonderfully tactile! Who can resist running their hand up and down this rich fabric. Because of this, luxury velvet sofas and furniture alike inherently have a very cosy and inviting feel, making them a great choice for creating a cosy living room setting. Velvet also comes in a variety of colours, making it even easier to style alongside your existing interior.

 

5. Velvet is practical and durability go hand in hand when considering what sofa to choose for your home. That’s why the 100% polyester short pile velvet we use for our range of sofas and furniture has been rub tested to 40,000 rubs, so you know it’s far from delicate. Velvet is also difficult to snag, as it has no loose threads or raised weaves to get caught on buttons or zips. Many polyester velvets are stain-resistant so light marks caused by food or dirt can be brushed off with ease.
