Farrington Chesterfield Collection
Each Winchester Chesterfield is handmade in our British workshop using traditional upholstery methods passed down through generations. You can explore our full craft lineage in the Heritage Timeline, which documents how our techniques have evolved since the early makers.
The Farrington Collection
The Farrington Chesterfield is a refined, minimalist interpretation of the classic British design. With its smooth, unbuttoned back and arms, clean scroll profile and beautifully tailored leather panels, the Farrington offers a contemporary elegance while retaining the unmistakable silhouette of a true Chesterfield. Its simplicity allows the natural character of the leather to take centre stage, making it a perfect choice for interiors that favour understated luxury. Built on a hand‑joined hardwood frame and upholstered entirely by hand, the Farrington delivers a supportive, comfortable sit with a calm, modern presence.
Craft & Construction
The Farrington is crafted with smooth, unbuttoned panels across the back, arms and front border, a style that demands exceptional precision in leather cutting, stretching and hand‑tacking. Without the visual structure of deep buttoning, the tailoring must be flawless, with every seam aligned and every curve perfectly shaped.
The frame is hand‑joined from solid hardwood, dowelled, glued and screwed for enduring strength. The scroll arms are traditionally padded and finished with individually hand‑nailed studs, placed one at a time to complement the model’s clean, elegant lines.
This model is crafted using the same hand‑tied springing and traditional upholstery methods described in our Craft & Upholstery Guide, ensuring every Farrington reflects true British maker skill rather than mass‑produced retail methods.
Made in England, One Piece at a Time
Every Winchester sofa is produced in small batches by trained upholsterers in England, maintaining the standards set out in our Workshop Principles and preserving the heritage of traditional British furniture making.
