Elevate your chill time at home by opting for a velvet sofa to enrich your living space. The look is luxe, the feel is sumptuously soft, and it makes cozying up in your off-hours even more enjoyable — especially when a chunky knit blanket is involved.
There are endless velvet sofa choices out there in terms of color, shape, and size, so no matter what your particular design aesthetic is, you can find a seat that fits the look you want.
The best velvet sofas — aside from having a rich textural sheen — are well-made, sturdy, supportive, and above all, comfortable. The couch model that works best for you depends on your space constraints and how adventurous you'd like to go with your color palette.
Sink into these 10 velvet sofas to become the comfort connoisseur you always knew you could be.
