{"product_id":"lotte-hand-embroidered-armchair-charcoal-grey-velvet-floral","title":"Lotte Hand-Embroidered Armchair | Charcoal Grey Velvet, Floral","description":"\u003cp\u003eCharcoal-grey velvet, hand-embroidered with multicoloured flowers — the same folk-art technique as its olive sibling, but on a darker ground that changes the whole character of the piece. Against grey the coloured threads pop rather than blend, so the embroidery reads as the main event. High square back, upright arms, slim dark legs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-embroidered floral motifs in multicoloured thread on charcoal-grey velvet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividually stitched, so no two chairs are identical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVelvet upholstery with a tall, supportive 83cm back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerous 77cm width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe more versatile of the two embroidered colourways — grey grounds the pattern\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\u003e77 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDepth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the embroidery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe floral work is stitched by hand rather than machine. That produces slight variation in stitch density and thread tension across the surface, giving the pattern depth and movement that a printed fabric cannot replicate. Small differences between individual chairs are inherent to the technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the charcoal ground the contrast is sharper than on a mid-tone base — the reds, pinks and greens of the embroidery sit forward rather than sinking in. It makes the chair feel graphic rather than soft, which is worth knowing if you were expecting something muted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to style it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grey base does a lot of work here. Because charcoal reads as a neutral, this chair drops into far more schemes than a strongly coloured embroidered piece would — it will sit against white, cream, sage, navy or clay walls without argument, and the embroidery supplies the colour the room might be missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep everything else plain. Pair with solid cushions in one of the embroidery colours rather than adding a second pattern. Works in a sitting room, bedroom, dressing room, or on a wide landing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVacuum on a low setting with a brush attachment, taking care around the embroidered areas — avoid catching the threads. Blot spills immediately rather than rubbing. Do not machine wash. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight, which will fade both the velvet and the embroidery threads. Dark velvets show lint more readily, so keep a lint brush to hand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sohowells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54661522489685,"sku":"WV-53234","price":689.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/0426\/0437\/files\/9be84f0d1f1598b5b3fa6bce81d655910a6d7ca2d9701af54aaf52c2aff1d9b7.jpg?v=1786796582","url":"https:\/\/sohowells.co.uk\/products\/lotte-hand-embroidered-armchair-charcoal-grey-velvet-floral","provider":"Sohowells","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
