GENUINE DISTRESSED ITALIAN LEATHER
The Cambridge is upholstered in genuine semi-aniline leather tanned in Italy and selected for its rich colour, texture and individual character.
The leather retains the natural grain and markings of the hide. Variations in colour, scars, creases and changes in texture are inherent characteristics of genuine leather rather than faults.
Each hide is individually inspected, cut and positioned by our upholsterers. This means that every finished Cambridge will have its own distinctive combination of grain, shade and natural markings.
With use, the leather will soften and develop an attractive lived-in patina, allowing your sofa to gain even more depth and personality over time.

Please select your preferred leather colour from the menu provided.
Leather can appear slightly different depending on room lighting and individual screen settings. Natural variations will also occur between individual hides.
If you are uncertain which colour would work best in your home, please contact us before ordering to request free leather samples.
TRADITIONAL CHESTERFIELD CHARACTER
The Cambridge takes its inspiration from traditional British Chesterfield furniture.
Its distinctive deep-buttoned backrest and generously upholstered arms create a strong, beautifully balanced silhouette, while the loose seat cushions provide the comfort required for everyday living.
Unlike mass-produced furniture, every back is buttoned and upholstered individually by experienced craftspeople.
COMFORT AND SUPPORT
The Cambridge combines supportive seat cushions with a strong internal frame to provide lasting everyday comfort.
The generous seat depth allows you to settle back comfortably, while the high upholstered arms provide a naturally enclosed and relaxing seating position.
Regularly turning and plumping the seat cushions will help maintain their appearance, shape and comfort.
SOLID HARDWOOD FRAME
Every Cambridge is built around a strong, traditionally constructed solid hardwood frame.
The frame is individually assembled before the upholstery, padding, cushions and leather are carefully fitted.
Traditional construction and repairable materials make the Cambridge a lasting piece of furniture designed to be enjoyed for many years.

If you are uncertain which size would work best, please send us the measurements of your available space and we will be happy to help.
BESPOKE OPTIONS
Because every Cambridge is handmade to order, alternative dimensions and leather colours may be available.
Please contact us before purchasing if you require a bespoke size or would like help coordinating your leather with existing furniture.
HANDMADE IN THE UK
Every Cambridge chair and sofa is made especially for you in our West Midlands workshop.
Our experienced craftspeople construct the hardwood frame, prepare the upholstery, cut and sew the leather, fit the seat cushions and create the deep-buttoned backrest individually.
This is not mass-produced furniture. Small variations are natural and form part of the character of an authentic handmade product.
MADE TO ORDER
Please select your required size and preferred Italian leather colour from the menus provided.
Our current production time is shown in the delivery information. If you require your furniture for a particular date, please contact us before ordering and we will let you know what may be possible. Please understand that we do not rush production of our chesterfield sofas, these are made by time served crafts people and each sofa take a considerable amount of time to craft to the quality we offer.
LEATHER CARE
Remove loose dust using a clean, soft cloth.
Small marks should be treated carefully with a slightly damp cloth and then allowed to dry naturally. Avoid saturating or vigorously rubbing the leather.
Do not use bleach, household detergents, solvents, abrasive cleaners, furniture polish or unsuitable leather wipes.
Keep the furniture away from strong direct heat and prolonged intense sunlight. A suitable semi-aniline leather conditioning cream may be applied sparingly when required.
DELIVERY
Your chair or sofa will be carefully protected and delivered fully assembled.
Please check the complete dimensions and ensure that there is sufficient access through all doorways, hallways, staircases and turns before ordering.
For deliveries to islands, remote areas or destinations outside mainland UK, please contact us before purchasing so that we can confirm delivery availability and any additional charge.
The Cambridge is a substantial and characterful handmade Chesterfield collection combining distressed Italian leather, generous comfort and traditional British upholstery craftsmanship.
