Velvet Upholstery Fabric

Velvet upholstery combines a plush, tactile surface with real durability. Rodeo Home's velvet upholstery fabric by the yard is woven with a dense, resilient pile that stands up to everyday use while giving sofas, chairs, and headboards a luxurious, high-end finish. Order a sample to feel the pile and check the color before starting your project.

Why Velvet for Upholstery

A tight velvet pile resists crushing and wears evenly, so seating keeps its rich look over time. The surface reads deep and saturated, hiding minor wear and adding a sense of craftsmanship to any piece it covers. For high-use furniture, look for a performance velvet with a higher double-rub rating.

Styling & Care

Velvet suits both modern and traditional frames — a channel-tufted sofa or a clean-lined accent chair alike. Vacuum regularly with a soft brush, blot spills promptly, and brush the pile in one direction to keep it looking fresh.
