This Chesterfield pairs the familiar buttoned shape with blue velvet. The pile changes how light falls across the folds, making the broad seat cushions and tufted back read differently even within the same covering.
Design, proportions and details
Velvet should be assessed in the room’s lighting as well as in a product photograph. The direction of the pile can affect the visible shade, so compare a suitable sample when coordinating the sofa with existing blue textiles.
The rolled arms and deep buttoning are shaped around a padded timber structure. The covering provides the soft surface, while the frame and cushioning establish the sofa’s proportions; velvet appearance alone does not specify the firmness of the seat.
Blue velvet should be viewed along the pile as well as against it. This helps distinguish a change in reflected light from an actual colour difference when comparing the sofa’s cushions, buttoned back and arm rolls.
