{"product_id":"aston-chesterfield-leather-sofa","title":"Aston Chesterfield Leather Sofa","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe chesterfield as it was first drawn: arms and back at one height, rolled outward into a deep scroll, the whole back and inner arms buttoned by hand into diamonds. It is the shape that furnished the libraries and members' clubs of nineteenth-century England, and very little about it has needed changing since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere this one differs from a fully upholstered chesterfield is the seat. Two loose cushions sit above a buttoned front rail rather than a fixed tufted bench — softer to sit on, easy to turn and plump, and forgiving over the decades a sofa like this is expected to last. The buttoning continues along the rail beneath, so the front reads as one piece whether the cushions are on or off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAntique brass nailheads trace the scroll of each arm and run down to the base in a close, even row, every one set by hand. It stands on hand-turned bun feet in dark timber.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath is the part you never see and pay for anyway. The frame is kiln-dried hardwood, cut and fitted with mortise-and-tenon joinery rather than staples and glue — the joint that lets a sofa be re-covered in thirty years instead of thrown away. The seat rides on eight-way hand-tied coil springs, each knot tied by hand, which is why it gives evenly under weight instead of sagging into a hollow where people sit most.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe leather is cognac, with enough depth and pull-up to shift tone wherever the buttoning draws it tight. Along the cushions and the arm tops it will darken and soften with the years. Being a natural hide it carries its own record — shade variation, the occasional scar or mark. These are not flaws to be corrected; they are the difference between leather and a print of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKiln-dried hardwood frame, mortise-and-tenon joinery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight-way hand-tied coil spring suspension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep diamond hand-tufting to back and inner arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo loose seat cushions over a buttoned front rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBold scroll arms, level with the back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-applied antique brass nailhead trim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-turned solid timber bun feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeather with natural shade variation and markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade to order in four widths, from a single armchair to a four-seat bench.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Avenue","offers":[{"title":"1 Seater \/ Leather","offer_id":45805294944303,"sku":"AA-SOFA-CHST-1S","price":100000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Seater \/ Leather","offer_id":45805294977071,"sku":"AA-SOFA-CHST-2S","price":165000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Seater \/ Leather","offer_id":45805295009839,"sku":"AA-SOFA-CHST-3S","price":230000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 Seater \/ Leather","offer_id":45805295042607,"sku":"AA-SOFA-CHST-4S","price":295000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/5513\/9631\/files\/classicchesterfield1.jpg?v=1786367028","url":"https:\/\/www.artavenue.com\/products\/aston-chesterfield-leather-sofa","provider":"Art Avenue","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
