Dudgeon Sofas | Knightsbridge

Craftsmanship - Sofas handmade in London

Dudgeon sofas are handmade using best traditional methods in their own London Workshops.

Best quality frames are made from beech wood with dowelled, glued and screwed joints.

Individual "double cone hourglass coil" springs are tied by hand to cotton webbing at the base of the frame to give a stable sprung seat platform.

Layers of loose horshair and natural coconut fibre are applied by hand to give comfort and are interspersed with layers fo thin hessian and thick Dundee hessian.

A layer of lambswool is added for softness before the barrier cloth and the outer fabric are added.If there is a cane sprung seat edge, an extra row of 4" or 5" springs is added to give wonderful natural comfort.

Sprung backs are upholstered with hand-tied coil springs in the same way as the seats.

All pieces are finished with sewing by hand - like Savile Row suits or Haute Couture dresses.

Standard cushions are duck feather and duck down (80% feather/20% down). Upgrades are available as desired including cushions with foam cores for "easy plumping".
