The stylised flower heads of this scrolling design are printed in striking coloured monochrome on a neutral ground. Based on a printed cotton from 1860–85 retailed by Charles Hindley & Sons, a home furnishing company once based at a premier location on London’s Oxford Street, the arrangement of rambling flowers and leaves has a sense of movement and spontaneity.
Brompton Collection
Design inspiration from the V&A archives
Sofas & Stuff’s love of fine art, textiles and interiors led to the creation of this upholstery collection created in collaboration with the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum), the world’s leading museum of art, design and performance. Creativity and craftsmanship abounds in the Brompton Collection, which draws inspiration from the museum’s expansive archives and the horticultural history of its site in London.
Coromandel
Printed in Lancashire on a brushed cotton linen union.
Inspired by a beautiful chintz bed-hanging, made in the south east coastal region of India for the European market in the 18th century, the fantastical pattern is composed of enchanting birds with trailing tails and ornamental branches in flower reworked in modern shades.
Elegant stripes, exotic birds and floral chintzes mix with botanical studies in a collection that is both contemporary and utterly classic in easy and relaxed shades that reflect the heritage and spirit of the archival objects that inspired them.
Flowering Kale
Printed in Lancashire on a brushed cotton linen union.
An attractive floral tree design with a block-printed look, inspired by a cotton textile produced about 1670–99. With a Dutch feel and refreshed in soft, contemporary colourings, this floral pattern is named after the ornamental and extravagantly ruffled vegetation growing from the stylised tree of life.
Ikat
Printed in Lancashire on a brushed cotton linen union.
A broad stripe broken with horizontal bands, almost a check, this elegant and understated fabric resembles the time-honoured technique of ikat and is based on a furnishing fabric possibly made in France about 1790–1850. Presented in the harmonious Sofas & Stuff colour palette.
The collection is inspired by textiles and botanical illustrations from the 16th to the 19th centuries, all held in the V&A collection.
Brunel sofa collection
Sofas & Stuff’s skilled craftsmen have created the Brunel range by reinterpreting 19th century fashionable furniture that would have typically furnished drawing rooms, held in the V&A’s internationally renowned furniture collection. Built to the highest quality standards, this outstanding collection will take pride of place in any room – and in any type of home. Plus, with its arms filled with coconut fibres and foam-free throughout, this is a timeless, understated look with strong sustainability credentials.
The Brunel Collection is the ultimate in classic design: with its high back and softly sloped arms, it has “turned” legs that combine the solid charm and artisan traditions of times gone by with a strong contemporary twist. Just relax, curl up with a book or with your favourite person – and let the timeless style of the Brunel speak for itself.
Pugin sofa collection
With its traditional look and style, the Pugin range delivers not only a strong, clean-lined aesthetic, but also the ultimate in comfort and relaxation at the end of a busy day.
The construction of the generous sofa borrows stylistically from the V&A’s collection of upholstery. Its elegant proportions are a reworking of sumptuous pieces from the Victorian era, carefully brought up to date. This is a range for the 21st century that will be a much-loved piece in your family home for years to come.
The range epitomises British craftsmanship at its absolute best. Using coconut fibre filling in the arms, and foam-free throughout, the Pugin mixes sustainability with style. This enduring design boasts a high back, gently curved sides and antique-look legs for a luxurious, timeless sofa or chair to suit any room. Everyday luxury for every home.
