Velvet armchair - anyone?

We are replacing our decade-old living room sofa and armchair in our Victorian semi and need inspiration! I am lusting after a velvet armchair - I think it goes well with our old Victorian house with fireplace etc. And thinking green.

It is quite expensive though and wondering if it will be a mistake? Has anyone ever had a velvet armchair, anything I should be aware of?

Velvet armchair - anyone?

OP, I have the Arianna from Made in a dark blue velvet. Also have a white cat and even that hasn't been too bad so far! They look pretty similar and I find the Arianna very comfy if that helps. I shopped around a lot and found Made the best combination of quality and price. It's clearly not going to last for ever but it feels very sturdy - takes my leaden weight plus a couple of kids (is nice and roomy). It is a bloody long wait though. Think it was about four months!

Anyway, I would definitely go for it. I've always gone for safe beige and grey things before and 'jazzed up' with cushions and throws, so felt like a leap to buy something such a definite colour but haven't regretted it yet.
