Every home has one seat people gravitate toward without ever really deciding to, the one quietly contested on a Sunday afternoon. It usually has the deepest cushion and the best light, positioned to see both the window and the door. More often than not, it turns out to be Chesterfield.
Most people picture the Chesterfield sofa first, right up until they sit in a chesterfield chair and understand why the shape has lasted two hundred years in British homes. Every one of ours is still handmade in Britain by time served craftsmen, then shipped directly to your door across the United States.
Here is the part that surprises most people, because a chesterfield chair isn’t one shape at all.

Furniture trends reinvent themselves every few years, moving from mid century legs to boucle curves to whatever arrives next, yet the deep buttoned chair never looks dated.
Choosing is less about picking the prettiest chair and more about deciding what the corner should do, since silhouette changes a room’s mood more than color does.
CLASSIC & CONFIDENT
The Conrad, Chatsworth, Sussex and Grasmere are the purest chesterfield armchair designs, with low rolled arms and a deeply buttoned back. These suit anyone who owns a chesterfield couch in the same design and wants the two pieces to match exactly.
TALL & SCULPTURAL
The Woodstock, Audley, Keston and Colwyn raise the back and add the winged sides that were built to trap the heat of an open fire. Nobody needs that anymore, though no other wingback chair throws quite the same shadow across a wall.
COMPACT & CHARACTERFUL
The Orkney Short is our smallest wing chair and the easiest to place, slipping into a hallway, landing or bedroom corner.
GENEROUS & GRAND
The Goliath, Grande Woodstock and Hammersmith are the statement pieces, built at a scale suiting high ceilings and generous period rooms.
MADE FOR CURLING UP
A snuggle chair sits roughly one and a half seats wide, which is exactly enough room to fold your legs underneath you with a book. Some know the same piece as a cuddle chair and it becomes the most argued over seat in the house.
A leather chesterfield chair is the first thing most people picture and understandably so, since a good hide only becomes more beautiful as its patina develops. A chair is a small enough canvas to be adventurous with, so many people choose something bolder than they would for a sofa.
Velvet in emerald, navy, blush and deep mustard, carrying an otherwise neutral room single handed.
Wool and herringbone in softer, warmer tones for country houses and transitional interiors where leather feels formal.
Tweed for a countryside feel that suits wing chairs beautifully, especially alongside stone and firelight.
Patchwork panels stitched one by one from our finest cloths, so no two chairs match. Antique and heritage leathers arriving with the worn character a new hide takes years to earn.
A chesterfield leather chair asks very little from the rest of the room, which is exactly why designers keep reaching for one.
Walls that work
Soft white and warm neutrals, letting the chair become the focal point of the corner. Deep forest green or ink blue behind a tan chair, one of the loveliest pairings there is. Warm plaster and clay tones, flattering both the buttoning and the leg finish.
Textures that flatter
A solid wood side table and a floor lamp, which make any chair a reading corner. Aged brass, stone fireplaces and open shelving stacked with books. A Chesterfield ottoman, which completes the lounging position and doubles as extra seating.
The personality shifts noticeably with the scale, so it is worth thinking about the room before the design.
Every chair is handmade in Britain using time honored techniques, so each button is pulled and tied by hand and every seam reflects the care that goes into a piece meant to last generations and every hardwood frame carries our lifetime guarantee.
Every piece is made to order in Britain and arrives at your US home within eight to ten weeks, delivered white glove.
None at all, since we absorb every import cost on US orders, so the price you see is what you pay.
