Haute Couture


Behold! A whimsical bergere chair upholstered in button tufted sea foam green silk and encrusted in seashells with silver leaf front legs. The chair is titled the "Haute Couture" designed by Carlo Rampazzi and handmade in Italy. This beauty retails at over $27,000.00.

If you're looking for something similar (and significantly more affordable...) you might like to check out the 'Best' Tufted Club Chair. It's not quite as flashy but is definitely much more budget friendly.. and who doesn't love that?

Greenwich Sofa & Chair






Both of these pieces are designs by Robin Bruce, and both come in a huge range of color and fabric styles which makes them the perfect option for a custom fit to your own home decor.

I personally love that you can really create your own statement by which fabric and color you choose. With the sofa, for example, the design and shape is incredibly inviting and elegant and has both modern and classic elements within it - either of which could be played up or down with your upholstery choice.
If you're going for a more modern feel, you could go with something like a Blue-Grey Linen or a Khaki Twill. Leaning more towards classic and traditional? Create a more elegant and luxe look with something like a rich Beige Velvet.

The Greenwich Sofa comes in 20 (yes., 20!) different color/fabric combinations which makes it truly customizable! View them all here.

Not to be upstaged, the Greenwich Chair (pictured below) also comes in a variety of color and fabric combinations - a whopping 17 different styles! Although it does come in some solid colors with fabrics like velvet, what's really great about this chair is that it's also available in some really awesome prints.

With this chair model, there are more "traditional" prints available like florals and houndstooth, but my personal favorites are the fun and unique prints like their "Grey Birds" and "Pink Dots" (view more here).
Either way, a solid or print of this model would make an amazing custom accent chair for almost any room.


Customer Review - Sofa & Chair;
"I bought the Greenwich chair and sofa and chose grey velvet as the fabric for both. They look beautiful, very elegant and head-turning. They are both on the firm side, however, comfort-wise, which helps them to hold their lovely shape, but if you were thinking of using these for cozy curling-up places, they would not be the best choice for this."

It comes in a variety of rich velvet colors including Buckwheat (pictured above) as well as Chocolate, Honey, Black, White, Pool, Aubergine, and Apple Green - and is available in sizes Full/Queen, King and California King.

I can only imagine that the decorating possibilities really are endless with this headboard as a part of your bedroom decor - especially because of the eclectic range of available colors. Choose a light or neutral color for an elegantly chic ambiance, or pick a bold, bright shade of Apple Green for a funky, more modern take on a classic look.

Enigma Gweneth Velvet Ottoman





The Gweneth Ottoman by Enigma

When doing my usual scouring of the internet for new and beautiful tufted furniture, I came across this amazing 'Gweneth' Velvet Ottoman by Enigma that stopped me dead in my tracks. I love how soft and plush it looks, and I want it in my living room like yesterday!

It's upholstered in luxurious velvet with plump and lovely button tufted detail and comes in Black, Purple and Green.

I love that it's such a thoughtful design, and something that I hadn't seen before. Like most ottomans it offers a ton of versatility and could easily be used as a foot rest, coffee table or just extra seating when needed.

Avenue Six Curves Button Back Chair






Avenue Six Curves Button Back Chair in Spring Green Velvet

I love the simple touch of tufting on this chair - not too much, but just enough to add a little oomph to the design. This is one of those pieces that really brings a modern feel to a traditionally classic upholstering style - it's really the best of both worlds. I particularly love this beautiful shade of green velvet but if it isn't your cup of tea, this chair style does come in other colors.

The design of this chair is unique and eye-catching, and would make a perfect accent chair in any room.

This chair has wonderful customer reviews - many of which state how quick and easy the assembly was, which is always nice to hear when ordering furniture online. In addition, Amazon.com is also currently promoting this product by offering discounts when you buy this chair in quantities of two or more!

The Emma Studio Tufted Sofa





This simple and stylish settee sofa would be a welcome addition to almost any room - at least in my house!

My personal favorite is the 'Natural' fabric color. I think that the light shade is so gorgeous and really gives a nice contrast with it's beautiful dark espresso legs - but the Charcoal fabric version is really nice as well. Of course, with the darker upholstery color comes the benefit of easier care and upkeep - they are much more  forgiving when it comes to daily wear and tear, dirt and stains.

This sofa has deep button tufting that offers the look and feel of plush comfort, as well as rolled arms and sturdy upholstery. This classic yet modern settee sofa offers comfort and a stylish look that will truly last for years to come.

The Emma Studio Tufted Sofa comes in your choice of two beautiful fabric options (Natural or Charcoal) and it's sturdy hardwood legs and frame provide years of lasting use in a classic espresso finish for a final touch of sophisticated elegance.

Skyline Furniture Roslyn Double Arm Tufted Chaise Lounge - Velvet






Skyline Furniture Roslyn Double Arm Tufted Chaise Lounge


This stunning antique-style double arm settee is crafted of a solid wood frame and gorgeous smooth velvet upholstery - available in a variety of colors to fit your decorating needs.

This piece definitely has a glamorous vintage feel, and I love that it comes in both traditional colors as well as some unexpected ones. And, since it comes in a such a large range of colors, it really can fit into just about any room and offers a huge amount of versatility.

I've seen this particular sofa being sold at Urban Outfitters but at a higher price so I thought I'd include a great customer review from Amazon.com that addresses just that;

"I love this! It's exactly what I wanted, a small and stylish couch. I saw similar ones on Urban Outfitters for almost $200 more. I was a bit worried that the quality would be less, but it's the same! It's the exact same item. I also own one of the headboards, but I bought it a while ago and was concerned the colors wouldn't match, but I was wrong again. They are exactly the same. I adore this couch, and the price that is offered is hard to beat. I recommend this item!"

A settee sofa like this is always a great choice as both a focal piece of a room as well as simply being a functional piece of eye catching, comfortable furniture.
