chesterfield sofas

Chesterfield sofas are primarily recognizable by the leather, which is folded in a diamond pattern and attached to the frame of the sofa with leather buttons. In addition, the characteristic shape, with back and armrests of the same height, is also a well-known reference to the noble seating furniture.

Due to their classic look, Chesterfield sofas exude an old-fashioned yet elegant charm that integrates well with different styles. For example, English leather sofas are ideal for a country style living room where it will provide you with a comfortable place to sit. Especially if you're going for a vintage style, the antique-inspired sofa will fit well in your home. In combination with contrasting new furniture, for example in industrial style, Chesterfield sofas create a modern yet rustic look.

Chesterfield sofas are available in a wide variety of designs, as they vary greatly in material, colour, size and shape. For example, you can find simple Chesterfield sofas for a seating group or corner sofas that offer you even more space to relax. There are also sets available in a uniform style, or you can buy an armchair in Chesterfield look to go with your couch.

Depending on the model, a Chesterfield sofa can seat up to five people for cosy conversation. However, most Chesterfield sofas are only two or three seaters.

The original Chesterfield sofas were exclusively upholstered in brown or black leather. Nowadays you can find some alternatives to this. For example, Chesterfield sofas made of imitation leather offer you a substitute without a guilty conscience, but with the same charm. Sofas in the same design but with a velvet cover are also popular. In addition to a softer surface, these have an alternative look in completely different colours, such as grey or green.

Yes, as with many pieces of seating furniture, you can also get Chesterfield sofas in a multifunctional version with a sleeping function. Since the armrests are firmly connected to the backrest, you can always pull out the seat of a Chesterfield sofa bed to create a spacious bed for guests.

A Chesterfield sofa offers you many possibilities to set accents and complete the style of your living room. On Chesterfield sofas, cosy cushions made of soft material create a harmonious contrast, and a decorative blanket over the backrest also creates a relaxed atmosphere. Of course, the impressive sofa also needs an equally handsome coffee table: here, large, rustic wooden tables or metal tables with an industrial, modern look are a popular choice. Decorations, for example in an antique look, and a generous lamp round off the ambience.

If your Chesterfield sofa is made of leather, first vacuum it thoroughly with a fine attachment and remove loose dirt with a damp cloth. Then clean it with a mild detergent, which you apply sparingly with a microfibre cloth and then wipe clean. After drying, you can also apply a leather care product. 

Velvet Chesterfield sofas should also be vacuumed and then wiped with a clothes brush or a damp piece of leather in the direction of the line. Stains can be treated with an upholstery or carpet shampoo applied to a cloth.
