Why Choose This Chesterfield Sofa from Sideboards and Things?
At 108 inches, this slate grey leather sofa anchors living rooms, libraries, and sitting areas with generous seating for family and guests. The low-profile back and large rolled arms give it a firm, tailored look that complements other sofas and loveseats as well as modular and sectional arrangements. Top-grain leather from world-class tanneries develops a rich patina over time, while the 8-way hand-tied construction keeps every coil spring working together for balanced support that won't sag.
Bench-made upholstery means one craftsperson or a small team builds the entire frame, ties every spring by hand, and wraps each cushion -- a process that ensures tighter tolerances and stronger joinery than assembly-line methods. Double-dowelled, glued, and screwed frame joints lock the kiln-dried hardwood into place, and individually muslin-wrapped coils inside each seat cushion add a coil-on-coil layer of comfort. Removable seat cushions with zipper access and velcro stabilizers make routine care straightforward, and the solid hardwood legs can be detached if you need to navigate narrow doorways or staircases.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a Chesterfield sofa?
- A Chesterfield is a style of upholstered sofa with deep button tufting, rolled arms, and traditionally a low back, first popularized in 18th-century England and now recognized for its formal, tailored silhouette.
- Is the George sofa made in the United States?
- Yes, this sofa is bench-made in America using kiln-dried solid hardwood and 8-way hand-tied coil spring construction.
- What does 8-way hand-tied mean?
- Eight-way hand-tied construction uses jute twine to tie each coil spring to its neighbors in eight directions, stabilizing the entire spring set so it works as one unit and delivers even, long-lasting support.
- Are the cushions removable?
- Yes, the seat cushions are removable with zipper access, and velcro stabilizers keep them from shifting during use.
- How is the sofa shipped?
- Sideboards and Things provides free standard curbside delivery to the continental United States; white-glove delivery, in-room placement, packaging removal, and assembly are optional paid services available upon request for an additional fee.
- Will the leather color look exactly like the photo?
- Top-grain leather is selected for natural markings and character, so each hide varies slightly; screen settings may also affect how the slate grey finish appears compared to the piece in person.
