We are currently putting in place final preperations for the latest edition to our range.

Signature will be a select range of hand crafted and hand coloured pieces, painstakingly put together using age old methods. The range will consist of High Back and Low back/ club chairs, as well as sofas, and some more unusual pieces.

More on this specialist product and the way it is made soon, and keep watching to see the unveiling in the next couple of weeks

As you may well know, we have been having a bit of a sale at Distinctive Chesterfields this month- our top sellers being our fantastic 3 piece Leather Chesterfield Suites.

Full hide leather and made in England, with hardwood frame and screwed and double dowelled joints, the price is not a reflection of the quality of these sofas. They are made to the highest of standards. But we cannot sell chesterfields at this price for long, so be quick- because when they’re gone- they’re gone!

To add to the summer sale madness (it must be the hot weather thats playing tricks with my mind) we are offering chesterfield 3 seat sofas at the amazing special offer price of £599.00

The sofas are made in England, as with the rest ofour stock and come with a buttoned or cushioned base. The offer is whilst stocks last so you better be quick!!

The chesterfield sofas are available in many different colours but our biggest stocks are in antique red, green, and brown.

For further information take a look at our special offer chesterfield sofas page

Currently, we are having a spring stock clear out and are offering 3 piece antique red, brown ,and green chesterfield suites at just £1,399.00

They are available in buttoned or cushion base versions and are made to the same exacting specifications as our standard chesterfields.

The sets comprise of a 3 seat sofa, and two chesterfield chairs- either high wing backs or low club chairs… the choice is yours!

We currently have around 30 of each colour available, but these will go fast at this price- so if you’re interested- be quick!!

Lets throw this one open to the floor. What is/are your favourite chesterfield sofa or sofas of all time?I have a few on the short list- The Cumberland, The Rutland, and The Kendal. All of these chesterfields are different in many ways, and have different selling points for me.

The Cumberland sofa is straight, square, and very victorian looking. And when covered in a high end leather, looks so classy.

The Rutland Chesterfield has a different feel. Sure, the seat is still buttoned, and the facings are still studded, but the slinky, curved arms give a more art deco type of feel.

Then We get to the Kendal. A complete curve ball for me as i usuallygo for the buttoned base models, but this chesterfield sofa is for a different setting. Picture the scene- a light, airy farmhouse with a huge galleried livingroom, oak furniture, and a couple of these sofas. Perfect.

Distinctive Chesterfields Ltd. has a long spanning history of experience within the leather chesterfields market, and this experience tends to show in small ways. For example, we have recently been commissioned by one of the most renowned art dealers in the country, to produce a small collection of pieces of leather chesterfield furniture, unique to them, to resell. We chose a base design, decided on the leather to be used, settled on an extended beech frame which is triple dowelled for strength and rigidity, and have had special brass castors custom made as a one off. These leather chesterfields are going to be something special, and the ability to guide the customer and merge their initial requirements with our many years of experience is what we believe, seperates us from the competition. Leather Chesterfields are what we do and we do them well.

Funnily enough, over the last couple of months, we at Distinctive Chesterfields have been getting many requests for package deals on chesterfield suites, mostly antique red, antique brown, and antique green chesterfields and queen anne style chairs.

So we are currently offering a small range of chesterfield suites to cater for this which will be available to purchase over the phone and via the website.

These are still made with real leather, and constructed in England using a hardwood frame (no cheap imports here!) but because we are producing so many units, the prices are very attractive!

give us a call for details

We are in the midst of a home styling revolution in the UK at the moment. The days of the reclining obnoxoius corner unit  which is too big for the living room are over. The Chesterfield Sofa, in its many guises, is the new focal point of choice for the discerning home furnisher, being stylish, classic, and yet extremely practical.

No wonder then, that sales of this style of classic leather furniture are at an all time high!

Currently in the development stages at Distinctive at the moment, is the new summer collection of traditional chesterfields and sofas- many of which will be covered in fabric as opposed to leather. This traditionally low volume market has been recently revived- a velvet or floral print chesterfield now being something requested frequently.

The options will include formal backed sofas or options of scatter back cushions for that more squishy, homely look, a couple of new fabric pattern options which are sure to provoke interest, and  a range of arm styles, from the traditional and curvy, to the more unique and square.

I will endeavor to give you all a sneak peek at a few models over the next few weeks.

Which term is most used today?

The reason i ask is that Distinctive Chesterfields deal with customers on a worldwide basis and as i am currently trying to add some content to the site, i would like to know which phrase to use.

Chesterfield Sofa has long been the favourite in the UK as far as i am aware, but recently, i have people calling and enquiring about Chesterfield Settees. And to make things worse, its seems that USA or Export / Import buyers prefer the terms Chesterfield Couch.

Answers on a post card please!
