Services
Bespoke Chesterfield Sofas
Each bespoke Chesterfield sofa begins with solid beechwood frames, crafted using traditional coil-sprung methods. Our artisans hand-tack and hand-dye leather to create unique pieces that reflect individual preferences. Clients can customize dimensions, materials, and design elements to suit their specific requirements.
Antique Restoration
Specialized restoration of 19th and 20th century antique Chesterfield sofas maintains historical integrity while ensuring functionality. Our experts preserve original characteristics through careful leather restoration and structural reinforcement techniques. This service caters to collectors seeking authentic period pieces with modern usability.
Leather Craftsmanship
Our unique leather treatment involves hand-mixing dyes to create distinctive finishes. From classic russet tones to custom colors, this artisanal process ensures each piece develops a rich patina over time. We maintain strict quality control throughout the dyeing and finishing stages.
Worldwide Delivery
We facilitate international shipping for all furniture collections, ensuring secure transportation through specialized packaging. Our logistics arrangements accommodate both new bespoke creations and delicate antique pieces, with regular deliveries to clients across multiple continents.
Showroom Consultations
In-person appointments at our Newcastle or London showrooms allow clients to explore materials and designs. Video consultations via FaceTime or Zoom provide remote access to our collection details. These sessions help customers make informed decisions about customization options.

Report
Over the years I've had 4 sofas and 2 chairs from Robinsons. David really knows his stuff and provided us with exactly what we wanted for a very reasonable price, given the quality of the goods. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again.

Report
Robinson of England have provided me with some outstanding pieces for both home and abroad. They are made to an absolutely amazing standard and look great in either a contemporary English home or (in our case) a traditional French living space!! David's team have an incredible eye for detail that cannot be under estimated. Anybody looking for a piece that will give the finish touch any decerning home owner is looking for....look no further!!!
