I put a lot of time into this because it is the centerpiece of the salon.
And a fine centerpiece it is, too.
The velvet effect is probably truer to Disney, too. Possibly to Verne, too, as French tastes in upholstery ran that way (the English Victorians were more keen on read dyed leather for "fine" furniture, when they were not using "broadcloth" in elaborately loomed patterns).
The red will be better for drawing the eye in through the windows, too.
Hmm, now the notion of lighting color raises up. Verne would have presumed gas lighting--which, in the day was a white light with an amber cast, nowhere near as yellow as candle flame (more like the mantle of an oil-fired latnern). Vern hinted at other-worldly energies, so a blue-white could be appropriate.
The Disney studio lighting was a "pure" sort of white for the movie, so, that case could be made, too.
The tricky part is that gas lighting did not flicker (this was considered a technological improvement). And "flickering" could be seen as a way to add interest to the model's lighting. So, I'm torn on which way would "feel" right.
And, it matters as a blue-white LED will give a slight purple cast to the sofa; a warmer white will skew "orange"--but be more "red velvet" to appearance (how my mind wandered into this, actually).
