Behind The Design: The Yorkshire Leather Chesterfield Sofa
Look into our newest leather sofa and see what went on behind the scene to create and conceptualize this amazing piece of furniture that is part of the Finn Avenue family.
When did it begin?
Our Yorkshire Chesterfield Sofa(Pic 1) was the brought to life by our beloved customers! Requesting us to bring in something traditional yet versatile and modern at the same time.
You guys also really wanted to see our interpretation of a classic leather Chesterfield,and though we did have our Furst leather chesterfield sofa(Pic 2), we know we do not want to stop just there. So we took up our thinking hats and Voila! A new star is born!.
What makes it so unique?
Normally a chesterfield sofa back is at the same level as the armrest but we wanted to create something that has a higher level of comfort while still retaining that classic chesterfield silhouette
The Silhouette
What we did with the tufting is, creating a rolled back curve to create a heighten back! This will not only be more comfortable but it creates a very timeless and classic silhouette that a leather chesterfield is renown for.
Hardwood Frame
We pride ourselves to make sure all our chesterfields has the hardwood frame that is kiln-dry to have the best durability it possibly can!
The Leather: Top Grain Indian Buffalo Hides
Unique Pattern
As for the leather, we wanted something that is very distinct to show that masculine character that is totally different from our previous designs and material choice, so we choose Top Grain Indian Buffalo Hides. Buffalo Hides has a very unique pebble-like design compared to cowhide so it helps create that rustic chic look while still being very sophisticated.
As Durable as it can be!
Top grain buffalo hide is one of the strongest leathers made for upholstering! Its strength and elasticity helps lower the chances of ripping easily, not to mention it is match and cigarettes flame resistant to prevent it from melting or burning
The Metal
We know about the mobility issues and their difficulties when moving these heavy pieces of furniture, hence we installed brass wheels to the front for easier shifting. Though others can opt for the standard wooden legs as well.
Not only that, the nail trimmings along the front is carefully hand-nailed in to have that metal accents that goes so well with this design to add more character to the overall look!
