A classic Chesterfield with fixed back and seat. The shape is compact with exquisite details; the front border curves outwards slightly between the arms, the back and arms have swelling curves as they travel from the inside to the outside of the piece and the fine pleats on the front of the arms give a tailored finish.

There is no compromise on comfort, Orwell is neatly proportioned with a formal upright sitting position and has a fully sprung seat and back, softened with laters of foam for additional comfort. Each hand-crafted frame is made from sustainable hardwoods and double or triple dowelled, glued and screwed, with corner blocks for extra rigidity. This robust construction ensures that these frames will last a lifetime.
