Kingston Sofa

About the Item

Made to order from our Lorfords Contemporary collection, The Kingston Sofa is a design classic. There really is no way to improve upon the original ‘Ivor’ model made by Howard and Sons, and so we faithfully reproduce the sumptuous luxury that this timeless sofa brings. Built and finished just as the model was in the 19th Century with hand-tied coil springs and hand sewn down filled sac-a-duvet cushions to sink into. The nation’s favourite! We build our Kingston sofa up from a hardwood beech frame, using only traditional methods and materials. With hand-tied coil-springs, there is no foam used in the build-up. What makes this sofa so comfortable is the high down content (50% down, 50% feather in seat, and 70% down, 30% feather in back. The down gives the cushion lovely softness, while the feathers provide loft and spring. The castors are individually hand-cast by traditional English metal crafters to a very high standard and a variety of finishes can be achieved. We use an antique brass finish as standard. The legs can be either tapered or turned and come in a variety of woods and finishes. We use tapered medium oak legs as our standard finish, as shown here. The Kingston sofa, like all of our models, can be made completely bespoke. We want this to be your perfect sofa. The price excludes fabric. If you need some help finding the perfect fabric, let us know. It takes approximately 15 metres in a plain fabric to cover a standard sofa.
