Our furniture is beautifully designed and built using techniques some of which have been passed down through generations of traditional upholstery makers. Using some of the finest leather hides ensures the finishing materials compliment the quality of our build.
Leathers – Request Free Swatch
We know when it comes to making a decision for your home it is important to get as much advise as possible. With over 50 years manufacturing experience with the best quality UK hides, we are both pleased and qualified to offer our assistance. Leather is a naturally beautiful product and we believe the best looking sofas are created using leathers that are tanned to realize the inherent character and integrity of the hide. Aniline and Semi-Aniline leather are pigmented with natural aniline dyes to ensure the unique variation of each hide is preserved. Our aniline leathers are produced using only the top 5% of hides to create the wonderful display of leathers presented in our range. We avoid using lower quality coloured leathers whose natural characteristics tend to have been obscured in the manufacturing process, enabling the production of fine bespoke English furniture.
Our friendly staff are always on hand to help with the decision making and further explain the differing leather options available. Free samples of leathers are also available by calling / e-mailing the sales office or using our free brochure page online to select upto 6 different samples.
Frame
All of frames are manufactured here in our Manchester factory from sustainable solid seasoned beech wood and individually placed serpentine springs. Each frame is robustly engineered to ensure your sofa will be cherished for years to come.
Fillings
Each one of our products are hand-made and tailored to you. Although we carefully select the cushion interiors for each of our models, we know each individual has a prefence when it comes to comfort. This guide will allow you to pick the interior that is perfect for you.
Please note: Fabric cushions are fully reversible. Only the INTERIOR of leather cushions are reversible; leather cushions are made one-sided to allow the leather to breathe and avoid bursts in the seams.

Foam Interiors
Studding
Hand studs or stud nails are individually fitted to all of our Chesterfield designs. Often our signature Renaissance Stud (antique on steel) is suitable, but once again the luxury of tailoring your furniture continues with the choice of 4 stud colours or even a piping option as a alternative to the traditional stud.
Mattress
Many of our great sofa designs are available as sofa beds and are supplied with a 5” sprung mattress as standard. A two fold metal frame with 1/3 webbing and 2/3 wooden slats form the base providing great support when used as a bed and optimum comfort when enjoyed as a sofa. Memory foam mattresses are optionally available on our contemporary range of leather sofas.
Restrictions in the nature of the design of our Chesterfield sofa means that only a 3.5” - 4” foam mattress can be fitted onto a 3 fold action, with a fully webbed base, without wooded slats.
Bolt On Arms
This additional service has enabled many customers to get one of our great sofas into some of the smallest of spaces. By altering the frame construction prior to upholstery we are able to offer many of our sofas with a construction design that enables the arms to be attached to the frame following delivery into the home. Our experienced furniture handlers will remove the packaging and securely bolt the arms to the frame of the sofa. Structurally sound and aesthetically unchanged the bolt on arm option has worked perfectly for many customers, with the added bonus that the arms can easily be taken off with a small amount of effort enabling the furniture to be removed from the home and move with you should the occasion arise. (currently not available on chesterfield styles)
