Velvet Elegance: The Enduring Beauty of Beaumont & Fletcher Sofas
At Beaumont & Fletcher, the velvet sofa isn’t just a seating option, it’s a statement of elegance and sophistication. Whether rendered in rich jewel tones or delicate pastels, the luxurious velvet collections invite luxury into every interior.
Luxurious Fabrics That Captivate
Among the brand’s signature fabrics, Como silk velvet stands out for its incredible depth and movement. Woven in Italy from the finest natural fibres and with a stunning Strié effect this designer fabric ages gracefully when paired with upholstery.
Additionally, the Balthazar printed cotton velvet evokes the opulence of Venetian palaces with its refined patina and sophisticated motifs.
