5 velvet sofas to make you green with envy

Chartreuse, Lime, Mint, Sage, Olive. Fanciful flavours for our favourite of neutrals - Green. Calming and confident, green sits as a true neutral in our homes. Inescapably associated with flourishing forests and lush landscapes - green really is the colour of nature.  

In our increasingly urbanised environments, it’s little surprise that so many are choosing to fill their homes with this verdant hue. It provides an escape of sorts, offering that vital link to the natural, open spaces often lacking for concrete and brick. A natural haven within our homes. 

When it comes to colour, there are few materials that flaunt it in quite the way that velvet does. Tantalisingly tactile, velvet oozes luxury and radiates colour from its shimmering, sleek surface with a lustre other materials simply cannot compete with. It’s unsurprising, therefore, that velvet sofas are increasingly becoming a mainstay in our homes. 

Exceedingly enticing, Velvet sofas will not only help a room to feel softer and more intimate, they also inject a real sense of glamour and allure. 

With a rich offering of velvet-swathed sofa families, we’ve picked out 5 of our best that will really sing in green, spiriting you away to pastures new.

Denver - Fern

A wonderfully generous, roomy sofa. The Denver’s low, flat armrests are the perfect place to perch a mug of tea, your favourite book, or even yourself.

Munich - Kingfisher

Sink into the Munich – a sleek contemporary sofa that effortlessly fuses style and comfort, perfect for modern design magpies that like to lounge.

Berlin - Fern

We were so struck by the Berlin when it arrived. In fact, we're still speechless (well, almost).

Those clean lines, that tufting on the seat cushions, this sofa is a Mid-Century marvel on legs – beech ones.

Tulum - Khaki

Wide arms for perching, power-napping or piling books. A tilted back of clean lines. This seating solution is shaped like the Mayan ruins in our favourite Mexican destination, placed atop a perfect plinth and pointy legs. What could be better?

Holton - Fern

If the best sponge cake you've ever had was a sofa, it would be the Holton. Tenuous but true.

The thick, delectable seats of this three-seater sofa satiate your hunger for comfort, while the delicate details are light, fluffy and oh-so-sweet.
