To think this is the most gorgeous suite you have ever seen...

I got this from an antique shop and I love it but my DH is not too sure and I want to know if it is just me that likes it. It is nearly 80 years old.

Have you just moved in to the house or redecorated? If so I think the sofa and chair are great statement pieces to build the rest of the room around. They look really good quality. Adding squishy feather cushions in a mix of plain but textured fabrics, a rug in front of the sofa, a floor lamp, a collection of prints on the wall behind the sofa, perhaps a plain foot stool or coffee table in front of the sofa will make it come together and cosier.

Yes it's beautiful but you need to glam up the room a bit. Change wall colour or put an oversize mirror/ painting and a rug.

Not for me, I need furniture with good back support.

Nothing gorgeous about it...but if you like it who cares...

Totally in live with these ❤❤❤ Even more gorgeous in that space 😍😍😍. Clearly not everyone's cup of tea ... but defintely mine !!! Fabulous choice xxx

If you are keeping the fabric you need to repaint and make the space interesting. We are currently painting walls and ceiling a dark farrow and ball colour and adding accents of copper in light fittings tables etc. You need to create a boudoir feel but not a cheap one then it will look great.

SHapes are nice though but still needs the “mood” changed bynpaint.

Definitely not my cup of tea... But then I doubt you'd like mine either.

It's godawful.
Sorry OP

agree with ironrocks!

Yup! Wooden floor, dark walls, opulent look- I see it!

Oh OP; it’s going to turn out to be a very expensive purchase if you have to buy a house to match it

I think as a very minimum you need to get rid of the matching armchair and put a nice new chair in it's place for your dh to sit on

That's the crux of the problem it really doesn't go with the new grey carpet.

I love this- and if you had a couple of big potted ferns or palms in the room it would look ace! I love vintage/mid century furniture

I love it!! But sadly I’m not sure it goes with the rest of your decor from what I can see.

Paint, add a dado rail.. maybe some wallpaper below it, add some nick nacks, a grandfather clock and some random bellows despite their not being a fireplace and you have recreated my grandfathers house 😄😄😄

It's just in the wrong setting, tis all

On top of a bonfire is where it belongs where it can burn majestically!

😂 I agree with this ^^

I think it's ghastly and I'm a bit of an antique myself. Each to their own though.

Have you had any strange goings on in your house since it went in? Because it looks haunted to me 😂😂

Bless him. He must really love you!

Sorry but it's too busy for me. Maybe if you add a lot of plain brown cushions and a couple of plain throws ?? It's a fab shape.

Oh no, sorry It's horrendous and such a depressing colour. Ditto about the dust mites and skin cells. yuck !!

it’s horrific

Love the suite!

Eeeeek!!!

It gets worse every time I look at it.

Sorry OP, don't mean to be rude.

That's a biology lesson waiting to happen...anyone want to swab and see what would grow?

You really shouldn't fight the architecture of your house. A house should fit and have flow not be jarring and I'm afraid that is rather jarring.

DH says it reminds him of a sofa he once sat on as a student and as he descended on to it an entire family of rats came screaming out.
