CORRIE DARK YELLOW VELVET ACCENT CHAIR

This chair nailed the exact vintage vibe I was going for in my living room.

Moving into a furnished rental meant dealing with some truly awful, scratchy seating that felt like sitting on cardboard boxes. I shoved my landlord's cheap chair into the back of the closet and bought the Corrie dark yellow velvet chair instead, and the difference is night and day. The velvet is ridiculously soft against your skin—smooth and warm without feeling sticky—and the dark yellow shade warms up the whole room without looking loud or tacky.

I was a bit skeptical about ordering a yellow velvet chair online without trying it out first, but I've been using this every single day for three weeks now and it's easily my favorite spot in the house. The mustard color looks rich in person without being loud, and the fabric actually feels durable enough to handle my cat jumping up on it.

We ordered this chair in November to have extra seating ready for family visiting over the holidays, but it ended up being an embarrassing visual disaster in our home. In the website photos, the upholstery looked like a rich, tasteful mustard, but under actual living room lighting next to our rug and holiday decorations, the color is a harsh, bilious yellow with an unflattering shine that looks cheap. Instead of blending into the corner near our Christmas tree, it stuck out like a sore thumb and completely killed the warm, cozy atmosphere we wanted for our guests.

That rich pop of mustard velvet completely woke up the corner and distracts from all the cheap, mismatched furniture my landlord left behind.

We recently upgraded to a bigger house and had an empty corner in the living room to fill, so I ordered this yellow velvet chair hoping it'd be a nice reading spot, but it has been a total letdown from day one. Putting it together was an absolute headache because the pre-drilled holes for the wooden legs were completely misaligned, and even after forcing them in, the whole thing wobbles every time someone sits down. To make matters worse, the seat cushion feels like sitting on a block of hard foam wrapped in cheap, scratchy fabric that looks way more dull and dirty mustard in person than in the online pictures. Nobody in the house will even sit in it because your back starts aching after five minutes, so now I'm stuck trying to return this bulky junk in the middle of unpacking.

Honestly, I shelled out extra hoping to avoid the junk from a cheaper brand, but this cushion feels like a brick and one of the legs is already loose.

We had a bunch of empty space to fill after moving into a bigger place, and this yellow velvet chair is super comfy and looks amazing in our living room.

I’ve been hunting for months for an accent piece to tie together my mid-century vintage vibe, and this chair hit the nail on the head. The mustardy dark yellow velvet is super rich in person and doesn't look cheap at all, plus the warm walnut legs match my thrifted coffee table perfectly. I was a bit worried it would be all looks and no comfort, but the cushion is actually really supportive for reading or hanging out with a cup of coffee. It showed up fast, assembled in like five minutes, and everyone who comes into my place immediately asks where I got it.

Honestly, we just finished repainting our living room walls a soft gray, and the space felt like it was missing something warm. I ordered this dark yellow chair to add a nice pop of color, and it fits the space perfectly. The velvet is soft to the touch and the solid wood frame feels sturdy enough for daily use.
