It is the most versatile colourway in the Cromarty range and the one that behaves like a neutral while still having presence. Rolled arms, a curved contoured back, an especially thick seat cushion, and contrast studding along the front of each armrest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmoky charcoal velvet with a shifting dark-to-light shimmer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContrast stud detailing along the front of both rolled armrests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeeply padded throughout — curved back, rolled arms, extra-thick seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 65cm width that fits rooms a full club chair would dominate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe safest colourway if you are unsure — behaves as a neutral in almost any scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDepth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e73 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the velvet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharcoal is where velvet's pile does its most obvious work. A flat charcoal fabric is simply grey; a charcoal velvet moves between near-black and soft dove depending on the angle and the light, so the chair has depth from every side. It is the reason a dark velvet chair never reads as a heavy block in the way a dark flat-weave can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pile is dense and short, which wears better than long-pile velvet and resists crushing. Directional shading will appear where people sit — inherent to the fabric, not a fault, and brushing the pile restores it. Dark velvets do show lint and pet hair more readily than pale ones, so keep a lint brush nearby if you have animals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to style it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the one to choose if you want the chair to fit rather than announce itself. Charcoal works against almost every wall colour, pairs with warm and cool palettes equally, and lets a patterned rug or bold artwork take the lead. It is also the most forgiving in a room you are still working out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor contrast, put it against pale plaster, warm white or a soft green. For drama, go tonal — charcoal chair, darker walls, brass lighting. At 65cm across it suits a study, a home office, a bedroom corner, or a hallway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVacuum regularly on a low setting with a brush attachment, working with the pile rather than against it. Blot spills immediately rather than rubbing. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight — velvet fades faster than most upholstery. Brush the pile back into alignment after heavy use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sohowells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54660002775381,"sku":"AMI-VLA42","price":359.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/0426\/0437\/files\/9214.png?v=1786784990","url":"https:\/\/sohowells.co.uk\/products\/cromarty-armchair-in-vintage-charcoal-velvet-studded-rolled-arms","provider":"Sohowells","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
