Furniture
aesthetics and design have been part of our living experiences since the
beginning of history. As an intimate part of our homes and lives, each piece
can invoke a new response in every individual which is why many homeowners and
interior designers choose to place importance on what pieces of furniture they
choose to surround themselves with in their homes.
As furniture
styles have progressed from art nouveu through to contemporary designs a raft
of imitation and revival styles have started to appear alongside vintage and
retro look designs.
These more
often than not have included the reappearance of Victorian and Georgian
inspired designs which have proved popular mainly for their contrasting bold
looks.
While the Victorian
style is one of plump heavily upholstered furniture, the Georgian look inspires
delicate designs with a symmetrical style.
Our range of
Chesterfield sofas at Kings offer inspired designs taken from the Victorian
style era. While the upholstery you choose to cover your chosen sofa in is
entirely your choice we have a range of swatches also inspired by the art from
Queen Victoria’s reign with bolder colour use in our Contrast designs.
Our Duresta
Connaught Sofa, available in both leather and fabric upholstery is the most
luxurious of all our Chesterfield sofas and takes part of its inspiration from
the Victorian era shown in the sofa’s round and plump appearance and heavy
upholstery.
An eclectic
mix of styles present in these designs, taken from the masculine Gothic and
feminine Rococo periods work well together and are perfect for anyone looking
for a piece of Victorian inspired furniture to flatter the rest of their home
furnishings. The optional ornamentation of wooden finishes and upholstery
piping also compliment the Victorian inspired design.
The sofa,
made from a hardwood frame, comes with duck filled seat cushions with an optional
foam core. A varied range of wood, fabric and leather designs are available to
choose from to enable our customers to work to their own tastes.
Georgian
inspired designs lay in our Contrast
upholstery winged chairs with their subtle and delicate style with slight
hints of Palladian glamour without appearing so overt that they overpower your
living room or study.
Such Georgian
inspired chairs; like these are designed to encourage the use of space and
light to create the illusion of regency and air should you prefer that
influence in your home.
Whether you
choose to keep to the original Georgian style though by opting for lighter and
paler colour schemes for your upholstery is entirely your choice. Whatever you
opt for we will attempt to cater to those tastes.
All the
Georgian inspired chairs are made in the UK using high quality standards of
workmanship, and should you choose to opt for the studded designs, these will
also be applied individually by hand.
Whatever
design period that you choose to influence your choice in sofas or chairs –
whether it’s to revive or contemporise we have a range of fabrics to suit
classic, refined, eclectic and even modern preferences.
Our range of
flooring can also be used to compliment different period influences with
carpets, wood and laminate flooring and of course rugs, we have a variety of
colours and patterns to choose from.
