How to clean velvet upholstered furniture

Velvet upholstered furniture is a trend that has been emerging in interior design for several seasons without going out of style. Although its greatest exponent is the sofas, armchairs and armchairs made of this fabric, it is also making a splash in the form of chairs, headboards, picture frames and mirrors, and even in dressers or tables.

Its main strong point is that it provides a very elegant, sophisticated and stylish touch to any room. In addition, it is soft and warm in winter, without being uncomfortable in summer, unlike, for example, a leather sofa, where we can “get stuck” due to sweat.

However, velvet upholstery has a negative side: it is difficult to clean, since it is a very delicate fabric that does not tolerate water or chemicals very well. If we overdo it or make a mistake, we can damage the fabric, causing it to lose shine, color, and even leave marks. For this reason, we should not overdo cleaning velvet upholstered furniture, but rather sanitize it only when it has a stain or, failing that, once a year to keep it spotless. Of course, always knowing how to do it correctly.
