# Premium Arabic Jalsah: Ivory Channel-Tufted Seats on Walnut and Gold

Ivory backrests stitched in deep horizontal channels rest over a walnut-tone plinth faced with a gold star-and-quatrefoil lattice on the Premium Arabic Jalsah, a channel-tufted majlis on a gold lattice base for two, three or four walls. Each backrest stands 16 in (40 cm) tall and 4 in (10 cm) thick over seats about 29.5 in (75 cm) deep.

## Questions buyers ask

### Can I see the sofas and the workshop live on a video call before I pay?

A video call can show fabric and finished seating before an order is confirmed. Prepare the model reference and the details you want to inspect, including the backrest profile and cover finish. Compare those visible details with the written specification; the call does not replace the measured layout drawing.

### Can I buy a majlis table set or a single center table on its own, without the seating?

Table sets are normally made as part of a majlis order, but a table set or a single center table can also be produced on request. A typical set pairs one large center table with four smaller tables, and an identical set can be reproduced later for a second room. Point to the table you liked in a photo or video to get a quote.

## What does the ivory set include, piece by piece?

| Part | Quantity | Measurement |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Channel-tufted backrest | Two per full seat | 16 in (40 cm) high, 4 in (10 cm) thick |
| Seat on the lattice plinth | Per wall, split above 75 in (190 cm) | About 29.5 in (75 cm) deep |
| Corner seat | Each inside corner | Shown on the drawing |
| Armrest | Spaced along the seating | Round and straight styles |
| Accent pillow | To order | Black or white, small throw size |

Each backrest covers about half a seat, so a full-length seat carries two. Every piece arrives with its cover and filling. The nesting tables, rug and curtains are quoted on their own. This set is one of our [made-to-order Yemeni seating designs](https://orientalsofa.com/yemeni-majlis/).

## What changes if you skip the walnut-tone base and go all foam?

| Build | Seat height | What you see |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Foam seats on the walnut-tone base | 14.5 in (37 cm) to 16 in (40 cm), varies by model | Gold lattice along the plinth |
| All-foam modules | 4 in (10 cm) to 16 in (40 cm) | Ivory fabric down to the floor |

The plinth is what makes this set look built in. I would keep it for a formal reception room. Wooden-base builds are not made lower than about 14.5 in (37 cm), so a floor-level room calls for the all-foam version.

On the wooden base, storage under the seats is possible, and cut-outs can be left for floor vents or sockets. Seats use high-density polyurethane foam — ask us for the exact density for your build.

## How is a long three- or four-wall room measured for this set?

Run the tape across each seated wall at floor level, from one corner to the other. Mark doors, vents and sockets with their distance from the nearest corner. No seat piece is longer than about 75 in (190 cm), so long walls are split into equal pieces.

> A buyer in Illinois sent photos with wall lengths in centimetres for an Arabic floor majlis, then resent them after the first plan: about 98 in (250 cm), 240 in (610 cm), 51 in (130 cm) and 55 in (140 cm), roughly 453 in (1150 cm) in all. The final plan was a set 16 in (40 cm) thick in total, in Turkish velvet, with floor cushions, backrests, two armrest types, corner cushions and small pillows. Tables were optional: either two square foam tables upholstered to match, or a solid wooden table. He also asked about curtains 118 in (300 cm) long, offered in two fabrics and to be sized on a video call. Before ordering he wanted to double-check every wall, so a designer call was booked for the next morning, his local time.

Ask us for a design consultation — we can talk through your room on a video call. Two people with one tape is the safer habit. Custom orders start with a layout plan for your approval.

> Measure the wall, not the old cushion.

## Ivory, cream or another shade: how is the fabric chosen?

The set in the photos is ivory, with black and white accent pillows. The same design can be cut in chenille, velvet or a weave with a linen look, in any shade from the color card. Our guide to the [fabric families we use](https://orientalsofa.com/fabrics/) compares them, and white and ivory majlis designs shows lighter rooms side by side.

Ask us about fabric swatches and a foam sample before you order.

## What is worth checking when the boxes arrive?

1. Open the vacuum bags within about a week of delivery.
2. Lay the numbered pieces out in the order shown on your drawing.
3. Give the cushions about a day to recover their full shape before you judge them.

Custom orders are photographed and filmed for your approval before they ship. In those photos I would look first at the channel lines, which should run level from one backrest to the next.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can the ivory jalsah be made in a darker color for a busy family room?

The channel backrests and the lattice plinth stay the same while the fabric changes, so gray, navy or another shade from the color card works. Gold accents stay or go as you prefer, and the drawing shows the combination before production.

### Are the backrests sewn to the seats on the ivory set?

The backrests are separate pieces, not sewn to the seats. That makes the set easier to move, but the seat lengths were cut for the first room, so send new wall lengths before you rearrange it.

### How many guests can this ivory majlis seat?

Plan on two to three adults for every 75 in (190 cm) of seat. A U with about 224 in (570 cm) of seating holds around eight to nine, and the drawing gives the count for your own walls.
