The Allure of Tufted Furniture

French tufted furnishings have seen a resurgence in design lately. Widely found on an array of pieces such as headboards, ottomans, dining chairs and sofas, these furnishings have left the vintage look behind and stepped into the modern world of design.

Tufted chairs seem to invite you to sit, relax and enjoy the feel of the fabric: often found in velvet, silk or natural linen.

A tufted bench at the foot of the bed is a luxury for those who have the space to do it. Not only is it stylish and elegant, it provides functionality as well with a place to sit when putting on shoes for the day.

One piece of tufted furniture in a room can make a statement surrounded by a simple design. Tufted sofas add a touch of elegance and are also comfortable.

The tufted ottoman is definitely the most versatile of tufted furnishings. Not only is it a place to put your feet up after a long day, but it can also be used as extra seating for guests, or add a tray on top to make it a cocktail table. Tufting creates visual interest to any item, showcasing the fabric and shape of the item. It is a great tool to add a sophisticated and elegant flair to your decor.
