Caring for Your Chesterfield Sofa
General Maintenance Tips
- Snags and Threads:
- Avoid pulling snags caused by sharp objects; instead, trim and tuck threads neatly.
- Arm Caps for Durability:
- Use lined protective caps to reduce wear and tear on high-contact areas.
- Cushion Care:
- Regularly plump, rotate, and flip cushions to maintain shape.
- Avoid excessive edge sitting to prevent creases and distortion.
- Protect from Sunlight & Heat:
- Position the sofa away from direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators (maintain a 30cm distance) to avoid fading and damage.
- Cleaning Guidelines:
- Always follow the care label instructions.
- Clean the entire surface to prevent uneven color changes.
- Invest in a textile cleaning kit for spills.
Tips for Homes with Pets
- Hair and Scratches:
- Keep pets off the sofa to minimize hair buildup and scratches.
- Use pet-friendly furniture covers for added protection.
Leather Chesterfield Care
Natural Beauty of Leather Sofas
Leather Chesterfields exude timeless charm with unique characteristics like natural scars and creases that develop a rich patina over time. Proper care ensures these features enhance rather than diminish the sofa’s elegance.

- Wipe gently; never rub the leather. Dab spills with a clean cloth.
- Use products specific to your leather type (e.g., Suede, Nubuck, or Aniline).
- Regular Maintenance:
- Weekly cleaning of contact areas prevents oil and perspiration damage.
- Avoid non-colorfast clothing like denim on light-colored leather.
- Deep Cleaning:
- Vacuum pigmented leather before wiping with a damp cloth.
- Treat grease marks with mild soap, then buff dry.
- Apply Leather Protection Cream 2-4 times a year for preservation.
