Roundup: 10 Charming Chesterfields

5

While some people refer to sofas simply as Chesterfields, the term usually refers to a sofa marked by upright, curving armrests and tufting. And while I'm not necessarily a fan of leather sofas, when leather is used on a classic Chesterfield shape, I have no complaints. Chesterfields are imbued with an antiquated elegance, even when their shape is updated by more modern designers.

I love the look of this Chocolate Brown Chesterfield Sofa ($1,300) from Maisons du Monde, which is outfitted in cotton velvet that's been treated with Teflon to minimize stains. It just looks so plush and perfect for falling into after a long day's work.

Yes I agree with Chesterfield2 - just took delivery of mine last week in lushious purple velvet. They were made to order in my bespoke dimensions by a British Manufacturer & it only took 5 weeks from placing order to delivery. Pm me if you require more info..

This style is beautiful and I love the two Anthropologie ones. But I'd rather some more cushion for comfort.
