Viscount 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 Viscount Collection
The Viscount is a distinguished, elevated interpretation of the classic Chesterfield. With a higher back, deeper seat and a more upright posture, it offers a stately presence while retaining the full depth of traditional buttoning and sculpted scroll arms. Built on a hand‑joined hardwood frame and upholstered entirely by hand, the Viscount blends heritage craft with refined comfort.

Craft & Construction
The Viscount is individually hand deep‑buttoned across the back and arms, with a taller backrest that showcases the diamond pattern in full. Each pleat is shaped by our skilled craftspeople, and every button is set by hand.
The frame is hand‑joined from solid hardwood, dowelled, glued and screwed for enduring strength. The scroll arms are sumptuously padded and finished with individually hand‑nailed studs, placed one at a time.
This piece is built using the same deep‑buttoning and hand‑tied techniques described in our Craft & Upholstery Guide, ensuring every Viscount 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.
