The Downton 2.5-Seater Fabric Sofa
If you want to bring a relaxed sense of classic British heritage into your home, the Downton 2.5-seater sofa is a beautiful choice. Handbuilt in the UK on a solid hardwood frame, this elegant settee perfectly balances traditional country house charm with a clean, modern aesthetic. It features low-slung, Howard-style pleated arms, deep-filled seat cushions, and plush, supportive T-cushion backrests that cradle you in comfort.
The sofa is upholstered in Emporio Sky, a premium, high-grade fabric with a durable flat-weave texture. The colour is a sophisticated, multi-tonal slate blue with subtle grey undertones that effortlessly brightens a room without feeling overpowering. Raised on dark, tapered timber feet that give it a sleek, airy profile, this practical, mid-sized settee is fully finished and ready to transform your lounge immediately.
