Velvet Cushions

How to use velvet cushions

Few fabrics offer the same richness and tactility as velvet cushions. Whether you prefer deep jewel tones or subtle neutrals, velvet brings a quiet sense of luxury to any space. It reflects light in a way that adds depth and softness – perfect for elevating both modern and traditional interiors. To create a thoughtful combination, choose a beautiful cushion from our collection in a velvet finish and build around it with textured linens or woven details for balance.

For a plush, tailored look, start with quality. Velvet cushion covers benefit from structure and fullness, especially when layered into a considered arrangement. Use larger formats behind smaller accents to create depth, and always pair with a cushion insert that maintains its shape. Whether styled on a bench seat or reading nook, the combination of soft pile and confident colour makes velvet a versatile option that feels both timeless and bold.

The beauty of velvet cushions lies in their ability to shift a room’s mood. A deep navy or emerald velvet can ground a space, while softer tones like blush or ochre can lift it. For the most cohesive result, let your velvet pieces be styled as part of your sofa cushions – either as subtle contrast or tonal depth. Finish with layered throws, brushed metals, or boucle to add textural complexity and bring your living space to life.
