Choosing a Velvet Furniture Set for the Living Room

Yes, they are known to be high maintenance, but modern velvet fabrics are now more durable, easy to clean and come with extended wear. The frame and structure are also designed to be solid and well made. Apart from its featherlike softness, it comes with a unique sheen and plays with the light, giving it that extra dimension in colour. It also has built-in resistance to wrinkles and does not crease or crack easily.

Back to the style, there is nothing like velvet. Coupled with the right design, it instantly dazzles the room. Its’ jewel like colour creates a luxurious modern glam look. From traditional to modern, and everything in between, there are plenty of styles to choose from. Use together with complementary soft furnishing and drapes and you will immediately transform the look and feel of your room.
