Velvet Bow Dark Red S

A small bow with rather big Christmas energy

It looks a little as though someone has tied a bow around Christmas itself. Scheulen’s dark red velvet bow in size S measures 25 cm high and 20 cm wide, combining a familiar bow silhouette with the soft, deep appearance of velvet. Two broad loops and longer, gently falling tails give it volume, while the rich dark red develops subtly different tones as the light changes. An integrated hanging loop makes it easy to introduce the bow into all kinds of festive arrangements. Hang it on an Advent wreath, amongst fir branches, from a decorative branch or wall hook, or repeat it as a warm colour accent throughout a larger Christmas display. At 25 × 20 cm, size S is more compact than the larger version in the series, making it particularly useful for smaller decorating areas or arrangements featuring several bows. A familiar Christmas accessory with a surprisingly effective way of changing the mood around it.

Red, velvet and candlelight get along beautifully

Dark red brings an unmistakably festive mood without needing to shout about it. Paired with velvet, the colour feels especially deep and warm, yet it can be styled far beyond traditional Christmas decoration. Fir greenery, branches, pine cones and wood bring out its natural side, while cream, off-white, smoked glass and black accessories create a quieter, more contemporary setting. Velvet is particularly lovely around candlelight, as its soft surface absorbs the light rather than simply reflecting it. This makes the Scheulen Christmas decoration an appealing contrast amongst glossy baubles, metal and glass. Size S is also ideal for repeating the motif: several bows on a Christmas tree, wreath or garland create a visual thread running through your festive decorating. Quite literally, for once.

Ribbons have been part of the story for a long time

The velvet bow feels remarkably at home in the history of Scheulen. Founded in 1951, the family business initially dealt in seeds before expanding into floristry supplies. Ribbon, wire, pine cones, Iceland moss and candles were amongst the products that shaped the growing range. Decorative and gift items followed, alongside seasonal collections for Easter and Advent. In 2026, Scheulen celebrates its 75th anniversary. This long connection with floristry and decoration remains part of the brand today and feels especially relevant to accessories that can be used in more than one way. Those are precisely the pieces we enjoy at LIVOSY: they offer an idea without deciding the whole arrangement for you. Christmas, after all, is allowed to look a little different each year.

A red thread you can actually hang up

At 25 cm high and 20 cm wide, the dark red velvet bow can be displayed alone as a compact focal point or combined with several bows to create a recurring decorative theme. Pair it with natural branches and wooden figures for a warm Christmas setting, or let the deep red stand out amongst cream, black and restrained metallic tones. Mixing sizes adds another dimension: combine the S bow with the larger M version to introduce varied proportions and a more relaxed rhythm. On a Christmas tree, Advent wreath or within a generous arrangement of branches, it creates a festive detail without demanding too much around it. And once Christmas is over? Store it carefully and rediscover it next Advent. Good bows deserve more than one present.
