Leather Chesterfields have long been an English Icon- Scotland have tartan Kilts, America has the muscle car, and England has the Leather Chesterfield. But where did it come from? There are a million different theories on where the name and design came from, but none can be truly confirmed. All we know is that the iconic images of Leather Chesterfields we all hold in our minds, are that of a leather covered sofa, the arms and back of which are the same height. Also, it is deep buttoned or ‘tufted’ all over.
The Leather Chesterfields of today are no different in appearance than those of a hundred years ago. The signature Leather Chesterfield look has remained the same for decades, and due to its timeless shape, will remain the same for years to come.
