FAQs on Chesterfield Sofas & Armchairs

1. What makes a genuine Chesterfield sofa different from other buttoned sofas?

A genuine Chesterfield sofa features deeply buttoned upholstery across the entire piece (including the back and arms), rolled arms at the same height as the back, and a distinctive front border. At FW Homestores, our Chesterfield collection maintains these authentic design elements while incorporating modern comfort enhancements.

2. Are leather Chesterfield sofas difficult to maintain?

Quality leather Chesterfields actually become more beautiful with age, developing a rich patina that adds character. They require minimal maintenance—just regular dusting and occasional conditioning with appropriate leather products. For families with children or pets, our leather Chesterfields offer practical durability while our velvet options feature stain-resistant treatments for peace of mind.

3. How do I know if a Chesterfield sofa will suit my interior style?

The versatility of Chesterfield sofas makes them remarkably adaptable to various interior styles. In traditional settings, a classic leather Chesterfield anchors the room with timeless elegance. For contemporary spaces, our velvet Chesterfield sofas in modern colours create a stunning focal point. Many customers find that Chesterfields work beautifully as statement pieces that elevate both period properties and modern homes.

4. What size Chesterfield would work best for my space?

For average living rooms, our 3-seater Chesterfield sofas (approximately 210-230cm wide) provide ample seating while making a statement. Smaller spaces benefit from our 2-seater models (around 160-180cm) or a single Chesterfield armchair. For open-plan living, our Chesterfield sectional options can define conversational areas while maximizing seating. We recommend measuring your space carefully and consulting our room planning guides before purchase.

These practical pieces maintain the distinctive Chesterfield aesthetic while providing convenient guest accommodation without compromising on style or comfort.

6. Are Chesterfield sofas and armchairs suitable for small living spaces?
