It’s a beautiful piece! It’s not super comfortable for sitting for long periods of time. I’m not certain if that’s because the back cushion is straight (adding a back pillow could help for support) or if it’s the very slick texture of the velvet. The ottoman definitely helps me remain seated. If you’re not paying attention you may find yourself sliding off! 

It’s in my office and gives me a break from sitting at my desk during the day. It’s also where I do some reading and listening to records. Greopoption for
