About the Item

The first leather Chesterfield Sofa, with its distinctive deep buttoned, quilted leather upholstery and lower seat base, was commissioned by Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield. It may have roots in 18th-century design, but when situated in a contemporary space it never fails to look as fresh and intriguing as ever. Now it is not just a piece of furniture but a piece of history.
