The assembly and upholstery of a Leather Chesterfield or Club Chair requires a great deal of skill, in many areas. The frames are hand made by time-served frame makers using high grade materials in a traditional workshop. The leather is selected, finished and cut by experienced leather workers, who have a keen eye for only the best quality leathers.
There are many steps in the process of creating a Distinctive Chesterfield. We are proud to say that all are undertaken by highly skilled craftsmen, Using traditional methods, Quality products, and the finest materials available, Right here at the workshops, in England.
The Derby Based on the classic chesterfield shape, the Derby is reminiscent of the turn of the century study sofa. It features a stiff hand sprung and buttoned base and is available as standard in up to four seats.

Leather Swatches Our Leathers are selected at source for fineness, texture, evenness, and feel. This means that only the highest quality end product is received by you, our customer.
Antique Leathers These are our standard leathers– fine in quality and available in ten different colours, these leathers are blacked prior to being applied to the frame. Then, once assembly is finished, the leather is rubbed by hand, removing the black and revealing the colour below. Once this is complete, the entire product is then hand sealed to protect the leather and final finish. This painstaking process gives the end product an authentic, antiqued appearance.

Premier Leathers If you are looking for something more in your sofa or chair, the premier leather range is for you. These leathers are pre-treated with a special blend of natural finishing products and because of this give great contrast on any piece of furniture. The grain is finer than the antique range and these leathers feel softer to the touch. The range of colours available is vast, with nineteen standard shades available.
Hand Dyed Leathers The ultimate in leather finishing- the hand dyed range add an element of total individuality to your furniture. The Hand Dying process is a time honoured, traditional method of leather finishing which has been done the same way for many centuries. The leather is vegetable tanned and is dyed by hand by a professional leather worker, before being sealed and sent to final assembly where it is applied to your piece. The finish is a rich, deep colour over a very fine grained leather- soft to touch. The leather will develop its own characteristic patina after many years of use and really will become better and better with age.
