I may not know what my future home will look like, but I do know one thing: it will be filled with at least one tufted piece of furniture. Tufted furniture is a look of gathered clusters on an upholstery that is achieved when upholsterers bunch layers of fabric in a pattern finally topping off the intersections with a button or knot. It is very much a vintage look, but also one that is timeless and elegant. I love the look on a headboard or sofa, but also increasingly see it on benches as well.
Though the look tends to be reminiscent of an older style of design, I like that it is now interpreted in colors and frames that make it modern as well. Here are a few of my favorite tufted loves:
Jonathan Adler “Whitaker” Chair & Ottoman, Horchow, $900 (from $1,125)
Olivia Sofa, Z Gallerie, $1,299
Two Black Linen Dining Chairs, Horchow, $799 (from $889)
“Denison” Mirrored Bench, Horchow, $471.75 (from $629)
Boutique Bed, French Bedroom company, £1395

You’re welcome dear! I hope we both get our tufted pieces soon! I would love a tufted bench as well!
the headboard with the quilted comfortor would be so very luxe!!
I’m also drawn to the blue couch with the dalmatian pillows, it’s so cute and fun and how I would love for my someday house to be.

Dear Chic & Cheap,
We would like to use the shabby chic tufted bed with Grey chenille fabric in our show homes. Can you please let me have a contact for the manufactured/supplier?
Many thanks

Hi Oliver, thanks for your comment. The gray chenille fabric tufted bed is from French bedroom company (frenchbedroomcompany.co.uk). I’m not sure if it is still in stock, but they do have similar styles as well. Good luck finding it and have a lovely weekend!
