Why does the price of Chesterfield Sofas vary?
We are constantly getting asked by our customers the same question
Why are Chesterfields else were more or less expensive than others on the market?
We have over 20 years' experience with making high quality Chesterfield Sofas and have hundreds of very satisfied customers across the globe and Chesterfields have come a long way over the last few decades in how they are made; originally the Chesterfields of the late 17th Century were all handmade and took well over 2 days to make and up to the mid 1960's horse hair was still being used and each frame was made by hand, with advancements during the 1960-80's new methods coming commonplace in all forms of the crafts and machinery speed up the process and the use of serpentine or the "zigzag" spring reduced the costs whilst improving the quality of comfort. As well as this the common use of the staple gun as well greatly improved the quality of the craftsmanship.
At the turn of the century the Chesterfields became popular with Gentleman's clubs and Military offices and became a design icon and quickly smaller companies each found their own niche and a clear distinction was visible between budget Chesterfields and the premium quality sofas.
Often to reduce costs the budget Chesterfields opted to use either Faux PU or Bonded leather which greatly reduced the price but also reduced the quality of the Chesterfields, all of our Chesterfields are hand made using only 100% genuine leather and a hardwood frame to ensure the upmost quality.
Today a proper Chesterfield costs around £700-£900 depending on the choice of leather or fabric that you want; you can get a cheaper sofa made from Faux Leather in the range of £500-£600 however the difference in the life span can be from 5-10 years.
