Verona Black Scatter Back overview

This is a single-colour black fabric sofa range in a scatter-back style, spanning an armchair, a 2 and a 3 seater, a corner sofa and a full ladder of sofa sets. It is best read as one coherent range in a single finish rather than a multi-colour hub. The most important practical point is availability: almost the whole range is currently out of stock, so it is navigated more by what is live than by configuration. The value in a single-finish range like this is coordination, the armchair, sofas, corner and sets all share the same black fabric and scatter-back styling, so pieces bought together match rather than merely coordinate. Black is a practical choice for a busy room in that it does not show the same marks a very pale fabric might, though as with any upholstery how it wears comes down to the specific fabric and care rather than the colour alone. For the wider material, see our fabric sofas collection.

Current availability: 1 of 12 in stock

Only the armchair is currently in stock; the 2 and 3 seaters, the corner and every set are out of stock, about 92% of the range. With almost the entire range unavailable, the page also needs an honest steer toward alternatives rather than leaving a shopper on a wall of Sold Out cards, the one live piece, the armchair, should lead, and links to the wider fabric range should be easy to find. For an alternative in stock now, see our fabric sofas collection.

What “scatter back” means

Scatter back describes sofas with separate, removable scatter cushions along the back rather than fixed or fibre-filled back cushions. It gives a relaxed, informal look and lets you plump, rotate and rearrange the cushions to suit how you sit. The trade-off is worth understanding: scatter cushions give a softer, more casual look and can be swapped, but they need occasional tidying to stay neat, where a fixed back holds its shape with less fuss. The number and fill of the cushions belong on each product page. Which you prefer is a matter of taste and how formal you want the sofa to look: a scatter back rewards a relaxed room where cushions being a little rumpled reads as cosy rather than untidy. On a black sofa, lighter or patterned scatter cushions are also an easy way to stop the piece feeling too heavy. For fixed-back alternatives, see our all sofas collection.

Black fabric

The colour is black throughout, a single dark finish across the range, and, helpfully, the product images correctly show black, so there is no colour-mismatch issue to fix here. The material is fabric (Verona Fabric), not leather, so fabric care applies rather than leather care. What we can say plainly is that colour here is unambiguous, the range is black in the data and black in the photography, so unlike some collections there is no risk of a shopper receiving a different shade from the one pictured. For a lighter neutral as a genuine alternative, see our grey sofas collection.

Choosing a size or configuration

As individual pieces the range offers an armchair, a 2 and a 3 seater, a corner and sets from 2+1 to 3+2+1 (the numbers are the seats in each piece). A 2 seater suits a smaller room; a 3 seater or corner anchors a larger one; sets suit families who want matching pieces. Bear in mind almost every size is currently out of stock, so if a particular configuration is essential, set a back-in-stock alert rather than assuming it is available. For coordinated suites, see our sofa sets collection.

The corner sofa

The corner sofa is part of the range but is currently out of stock, only the armchair is live, so if a corner is what you want, set a back-in-stock alert on its product page. When it returns, a corner needs clearance along both walls of the corner plus room for the return, so measure the two runs and the seating depth, and check which way it faces (left- or right-hand) against your room. It arrives as separate sections, which usually helps with access. Because the corner is sold out here while it is one of the more sought-after configurations, setting a back-in-stock alert is the sensible move rather than waiting and checking manually. For more L-shaped options available now, see our corner sofas collection.

Comfort, cushions and frame

Scatter-back cushions are the thing that shapes how these sofas feel. They are separate and removable, so you can plump them, swap them between seats and arrange them to suit how you sit, which gives a softer and more relaxed feel than a fixed back. The trade-off is that they need occasional tidying to keep looking sharp. Seat height and depth are set per model, so take those from the product page for the piece you are considering, or ask our team on 02476 705 600. For the wider fabric offering, see our fabric sofas collection.

Fabric care

This is a fabric range (there is no leather here, so leather-care guidance does not apply): vacuum gently and regularly, blot spills promptly rather than rubbing, use only the products the care label recommends, and plump and rotate the removable cushions to keep the look even. On a dark fabric, lint and pet hair can be more visible, so a gentle regular vacuum keeps it looking its best; always check the care code on your specific item first. For care guidance, see our fabric care guide.

Styling a black scatter-back sofa

A black scatter-back sofa reads bold and grounding; it works with lighter walls and floors that give it contrast, and warm metals, wood tones or colourful scatter cushions stop it feeling heavy. The removable scatter cushions make it easy to change the look seasonally by swapping covers or throws. For a lighter neutral, see our grey sofas collection.

Measuring before ordering

Measure the width of the spot with a little room either side, the depth the sofa projects into the room, and the height for alcoves or sloped ceilings; for the corner, measure both wall runs and the return. Then measure your doorways, hallways, stair turns, any landing and lift, and allow turning space, the corner and larger sets arrive as separate pieces, which helps. Take the exact figures from each product page rather than a generic size. For a method, see our sofa measuring guide.

Stock, sold-out items and alternatives

With eleven of the twelve out of stock, most configurations are currently unavailable and only the armchair is live. Use the back-in-stock option where offered; in the meantime a similar black or dark fabric sofa in another range, or a different configuration, may suit just as well. For everything, see our all sofas collection.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the Verona Black Scatter Back range?
It is a single-colour black fabric sofa range with a scatter-back style, listing 12 products: an armchair, 2 and 3 seater sofas, a corner sofa and a full set of configurations (2+1, 3+1, 2+2, 3+2, 3+3, 2+1+1, 3+1+1 and 3+2+1). Please note availability is currently very limited (see the next question).
Which products are currently in stock?
Only one of the twelve is in stock, the armchair, and the other eleven (the 2 and 3 seaters, the corner and all the sets) are out of stock. Stock is dynamic, so check the live product pages for current availability, and use the back-in-stock option on anything sold out.
What does “scatter back” mean?
Scatter back describes sofas with separate, removable scatter cushions along the back rather than fixed or fibre-filled back cushions. It gives a relaxed, casual look and lets you plump and rearrange the cushions. The exact number and fill of the cushions is on each product page.
What colour and material are these sofas?
They are black fabric throughout, a single dark finish across the whole range. Material is fabric (not leather), so follow fabric care rather than leather care. The exact fabric and its care code are on each product page.
What sizes and configurations are available?
The range covers an armchair, a 2 seater and a 3 seater, a corner sofa, and sofa sets from 2+1 up to a full 3+2+1 (the numbers are the seats in each piece). Most of these are currently out of stock, so check each product page for live availability before choosing.
Is the corner sofa available?
Not currently, in the range the corner sofa is out of stock, and only the armchair is in stock. If you want the corner, use the back-in-stock notification on its product page, or ask our team on 02476 705 600 about the current position. Corner sofas need clearance along both walls, so measure the two runs and the return when it returns.
Does the black fabric show dust, or is it easy to keep clean?
The sensible approach is to follow the fabric care guidance: vacuum gently and regularly, deal with spills promptly by blotting rather than rubbing, and use only the products the care label recommends.
Are these sofas suitable for families?
How a fabric sofa copes depends on the specific fabric and how it is used; the sensible approach is to follow the care guidance and choose a configuration that fits your household and space.
How do I care for the fabric?
This is a fabric range, so follow the fabric care guidance: vacuum gently and regularly, blot spills promptly rather than rubbing, and use only the upholstery products the care label recommends. Because the scatter cushions are removable, you can plump and rotate them to keep the look even. Always check the care code on your specific item first.
How long does delivery take, and is it free?
Delivery is free across England and Wales, handled by our own two-person team to the ground floor, and usually takes 7–10 working days. Sold-out items depend on restock timing, so check the product page before ordering.
