Antique Chesterfield Sofa

Posted on February 26, 2021

Whilst it was traditionally only seen in formal settings, the buttoned upholstery detail has seeped into home interiors of all kinds. There is something about the charm and pleasing curves of chesterfield sofas that bring oodles of character into any living space. Take this antique chesterfield sofa covered in vintage grain sacks and drop end arms for instance. The traditional deep buttoned appearance is balanced well with the neutral-coloured upholstery which can make it an easy fit into contemporary designs.

It doesn’t convey a typical period feel nor does it have bold, overwhelming floral upholstery fabric, this means that when paired well with other modern seating options, it will work in a unique and cohesive way. The Chesterfield sofa is a design icon that has evolved over the centuries and is available in various different forms.

If you are looking at making it the star of your decor you can also create a sense of continuity with other buttoned pieces of furniture, whether it’s buttoned armchairs or an ottoman. Have a look at this classic blue ottoman, upholstered with indigo blue antique linen.

Such furniture pieces are the perfect way of introducing texture into an otherwise bare room. We have quite a few options here. Browse through to have a look.
