Stunning 19th-Century Victorian Brown Leather Serpentine Chesterfield Sofa

This exceptional and rare 19th-century Victorian three seater serpentine Chesterfield sofa, circa 1880, makes a striking statement in any interior. Upholstered in its original brown leather hide, which has been carefully cleaned, polished and traditionally hand dyed, it offers a wonderfully soft and sumptuous feel, enhanced by the original horsehair padding.
The sofa features a full button down seat, together with a fully buttoned scroll back and armrests, and retains most of its original buttons. It stands on elegant hand turned mahogany front legs and mahogany splayed rear legs, all terminating in original period brass castors, which underline its quality and authenticity.
With its beautifully curved arms, serpentine front and generous Victorian proportions, this piece combines outstanding comfort with timeless style. The rich patina of the hand dyed leather adds great character and showcases the fine craftsmanship of the period. A few sympathetic leather restorations have been carried out, which is entirely normal for a Chesterfield of this age and only enhances its authentic vintage appeal. Heavy, solid and built to last, this is a superb example of a quality Victorian Chesterfield. It brings instant luxury, warmth and sophistication to any room, whether traditional or contemporary in style.
