At The Oblist, we’ve hand-selected armchairs that offer more than a surface-level trend. Here you’ll find velvet accent chair designs in thoughtful shapes and tones—from rounded forms that embrace the body to minimalist angular frames in plush jewel tones or subtle neutrals. These chairs are made to be lived in, admired, and styled with intent.

Soft Texture, Bold Form

What makes velvet so impactful in modern interiors is its ability to both reflect light and add visual weight. In armchairs, it delivers a richness of tone and hand-feel that instantly elevates a space. Our selection includes velvet tufted armchairs for those who love a classic twist, and smooth, uninterrupted upholstery for a more sculptural, modern appeal.

All chairs in this collection are built on solid wood or powder-coated steel frames and upholstered with performance-grade velvet blends for durability and easy care. Whether styled solo in a reading nook or paired in symmetry across a fireplace, these velvet armchairs offer both softness and visual strength—a rare combination in modern seating.

Colorways, Details, and Versatility

From black velvet armchairs that bring drama and grounding, to sage, blush, and midnight blue tones that layer into tonal spaces, this collection celebrates velvet’s chameleon-like ability to transform a room’s mood. Textural details like fluted backs, channel tufting, and piping accents add another layer of sophistication.

Looking for a bold statement? Explore sculptural chairs with bold proportions in rich emerald or mustard tones. Prefer something more understated? We offer tailored silhouettes in warm greys, taupes, and even off-whites that feel elevated without overpowering. Whether your style leans glamorous, moody, or quietly modern, there’s a velvet chair to suit your aesthetic.

How to Style a Velvet Accent Chair

To style a velvet accent chair, consider juxtaposing the softness of the upholstery with harder elements—glass, metal, or raw wood. Place your chair near a sleek side table with sculptural lighting, or anchor it with a patterned rug for added texture play. Velvet especially shines in natural light, so situate near a window to let the fabric glow.

For pairings, think in contrast: black velvet with pale oak, blush pink with matte brass, or forest green with monochrome artwork. A single velvet chair can become the signature piece in a neutral room, or act as a tonal echo in a more layered space. Either way, it delivers tactile beauty with everyday function.
