It is getting to that time of year here at distinctive chesterfields, where we are having to clear our stock to make way for christmas orders. Due to this, we have a few special offers on chesterfield sofas. One of the most popular sofa we do is the black chesterfield sofa with a buttoned base, and it just so happens that we have a few available in the two seat variety at £995.00 each. Now this is not just your average standard black leather, but an aniline, premium distressed black leather, which gives the 2 seat buttoned base derby such character, that these items dont usually stop around long enough to become specials- but here they are!

Also, they are in absolute pristine condition, having not been used since manufacture.

To take a look at these black chesterfield sofas, give us a call, but be warned, these wont be around for long!!

Yes its that dreaded quiet summer month again where our chesterfield sofas come second to the holidays. To try and tempt you into reconsidering us before the end of the summer break, we are currently offering sale prices on stock chesterfield sofas and chesterfield suites such as the Essex range.

An because these sofas are in stock, we can deliver super quick!

Just call or e-mail for more details!

Recently, it seems that every swish party or corporate event i go to has had furniture provided by a furniture hire company. Whats more, this week we have agreed to supply several items, both large and small to corporate furniture hire companies. It seems that all of a sudden, everybody wants to hire a chesterfield for their party or gathering.

What has surprised me though, is that our usual best sellers, the antique greens and antique reds, are not being touched. Yet the Black, White, and Pastille red and blue chesterfields are being snapped up as quickly as we can make them!

So has there been a sudden influx of people wanting to hire chesterfield sofas? or has this market or leather chesterfields for hire just become apparent to us?

Either way, i think it a positive thing for the industry- and as for the white ones… great. This lets people see that a leather chesterfield does not havew to be a traditional, drap item, but a chic, modern piece of furniture. And the best bit? after a week of hiring your chesterfield sofa, you get to send it back, so you dont even have to clean it!!

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!

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!

Lately at Distinctive Chesterfields, we seem to have been exporting more chesterfield sofas than selling in the UK. Over the past five weeks, we’ve sent items to Sweden, Finland, Denmark, 3 to Norway!, Holland, and Belgium!!

Not that i’m complaining of course- and the thing that amazes me most is how cost effictively we can get it transported.

What is even more unusual is that most of the suites have been in antique leather- as opposed to our premium aniline leathers which are our usual top sellers!

Fancy a chesterfield sofa but need custom or bespoke finishes or sizes?

Talk to distinctive chesterfields!

We are experts in Bespoke and Custom work- in fact over 30% of our business is made up of non- standard orders.

Some recent projects we have undertaken include a 15ft Lime green chesterfield ( above) , a double corner unit in hand finished ivory leather, and a suite consisting of a distressed black wessex sofa and two Queen anne wing chairs.

There are many possible differences between different leather chesterfield chairs, but lets assume that the style of chair and leather type are the same.

The next thing to consider is the frame. Is it hard or soft wood? This isimportant, due to the fact that when a chesterfield chair is complete, it is under lots of sprung force, which puts pressure on the frame. Therefore, if the frame is of a low quality, then over time the shape will distort or even break.

The second thing to consider is how the chair is wadded. By this I mean, is the chesterfield chair sprung on the arms, back ,and base? or is it simply foamed? If fully sprung, you then have yourself a high quality chesterfield chair which will last a lifetime. If not, then you dont. Answer these couple of simple questions before purchasing your chesterfield chairs and you will not go far wrong.

Recently, i have had an unusually large amount of enquiries from customers in the United States of America who want to purchase chesterfields, both sofas, settees, and chairs from me. After looking into this in some detail, it seems that there is a huge demand for a genuine, English Leather Chesterfield, in the states and currently not many people servicing this market. To this end, we have recently spoken with our haulage company and negotiated a deal to give free delivery to all US orders over £1500.00 for the next couple of months to see just how much demand there is over there!

This offer does exclude the Chesterfield Suite Specials, but includes the whole of the rest of the range- including hump back, tufted, buttoned, and cushion based models.

I’ll keep you posted !
