Velvet feels luxurious. The word, much like the upholstery, is sensual and lavish. It’s enough to want to wrap yourself up in swaths of the fabric, yet it doesn’t take much of the plush texture to give a room a sense of opulence. Velvet furniture and home accessories are available at every size, shape and price point, to create a look that works for you. These ten finds from online shops (including Apartment Therapy Marketplace) are just the beginning…

Details like the tufted buttons and tapered legs make the Persia Arm Loveseat appear more expensive than its price tag. Available on Apartment Therapy Marketplace, $739.
