Antique Chesterfield Sofas: Why You Should Buy Them

First things first, what even is a chesterfield sofa? It is one of the most well-known as well as popular forms of design for a sofa- and for good reason. It is the very definition of elegance and is a timeless classic. The chesterfield sofa is very distinguishable- its high arms and tuft leather upholstery being its major giveaway. It was first said to be used by the 4th Earl of Chesterfield- hence, its name.

An antique chesterfield sofa typically comes in a rich dark brown coloured leather, though variants in the colour have started becoming more common in recent years. One of its most distinctive features is that its arms and back are of the same height. These sofas were exclusively found within the walls of English gentlemen`s clubs, business spaces and of course the homes of the aristocracy, which is why they became a kind of status symbol. It is often said that Queen Victoria and Sigmund Freud were notably fond of this particular design of furniture.

An antique leather chesterfield sofa will prove to be a wonderful addition to your home as it is not only incredibly comfortable to sit and even sleep on- let us not forget that Freud had this sofa placed in his clinic for his patients to lie back in and express themselves freely and comfortably- but will also elevate the look of whichever room it is kept in. It has an incredible presence and will add class and elegance to its surroundings to a great extent.

vampire!sevika x witch!reader who runs into you at the library when she’s returning books. (no smut … yet!??!) men and minors dni

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:✧･ﾟ:

Vampire!sevika who smells you, sickly sweet smell of a bakery, cigarettes and coffee. whose mouth starts to taste metallic. standing there and scenting the air, her eyes scrunched shut so no one sees the whites have turned crimson and her pupils are blown and black.

who tries to smile at you but feels her fangs extending a pain of hunger growing in her so she has to feed before she even comes near you.

vampire!Sevika who ignores all your advances with a smile and flippancy because she’s afraid she’ll hurt you if she gets too close.

vampire!Sevika whose hunting and spots you on a picnic, and has to claim she was hiking because she was caught staring.

vampire!Sevika who has to join you — seeing you alone in the woods too worrisome for her to leave you.

vampire!Sevika who then warms up to the idea of being around tou, not because she was dangerous but because she could protect you from things much worse than her

vampire!Sevika who starts leaving flowers at your work.

vampire!Sevika who is so used to providing she nearly cries when you send her your favourite book you “think you’ll really enjoy. It seems to match your old soul” with a plate of baked cookies on top.

vampire!Sevika who has her team watch out for you (as in stalk you 24 hours and report your movements back to her)

she thinks it’s the way you get to know someone — watch you , learn what you like so that she can anticipate your needs and be a good partner.

vampire!Sevika who thinks she’s ready to have dinner at your place when you offer.

and is stunned to see the sigils and candles, books and herbs inside, crystals lining the walls and refracting light into your living room.

When you stand silently at the door until she asks to be invited in, she’s immediately suspicious.

vampire!Sevika who’s been around long enough to realise you have a cloaking spell rune above your fireplace and knows she fucked.

because she doesn’t know anything about you — all her intel was messed with by your spell.

vampire!sevika who is now an entirely new level of nervous because not only are you intelligent and interesting and funny — you’re also more gorgeous than any face she’s seen in decades. eyes so unwarded and honest, skin soft and dewy. and your hands on hers — god it’s so soft—

and then she realises you’re asking about her daylight ring, you’re very fascinated you know about the type of rock that was used, it’s more popular century, the tiny runes inscribed de dismissed as aging.

vampire!Sevika who doesn’t stay for dinner when she smells your tea, the scent like burning razors in her nostrils. Vervain. A plant near deadly to vampires.

vampire!Sevika who excuses herself saying she has a cold and then receives a care package for her, which makes her realise the cookies you baked didn’t have any vervain in them. So she tries the food and it’s fine. more than fine it’s incredible. It makes her so hungry she has to feed.

vampire!sevika who only feeds on what she declared “scum of the earth,” she didn’t do it often at the risk of being caught but some nights, (like where she sees two men pulling a knife on a woman walking home from work — well with a knife it’s easy to make the deaths look … natural) she’s lucky.

vampire!Sevika who invites you over to her loft, it’s actually more dated than you’d expect. gold-yellow and red lilac and columbine flower wallpaper in the living room’s feature wall. With more modern pops in the furniture and essentials.

���A lot of your stuff is… antique,” you say smiling politely, a furrow in your brow. and Sevika laughs at the way you sit very very carefully on an old chesterfield sofa.

“I’ve reinforced them,” Sevika explains “they are old but, I can’t seem to let them go,”

“Family heirloom?” You guess, a lot of the stuff in here was too fancy to be sold at regular antiques in your area, which meant Sevika was rich, according to her furniture you guessed old money rich.

“that’s insane to have a family tree you can trace so far back you could have your own heirloom”

it was her brothers. they sat on it every night together in his first and only home, and talked in depth about nothing at all.

“My family is close, I am grateful,” Sevika says

the look in your eye. a twinkle of playful curiosity,

“and the ring is an heirloom also?” You ask, standing up to take another look around.

“this stuff if very english — your accent —“

”we moved when I was very little,” she interrupted quickly, that wasn’t entirely false. “I’ve lived here all my life,” that was lie.

you smile at her and quirk your head. she was so… guarded.

“what about your family?” Sevika asks, stepping toward you and guiding you with her hand on your lower back to the sofa. she opens a bottle of wine and pours it for you when she hears you say “salem” and nearly spills. you pretend not to notice and take the glass, thanking her.

“yeah, we fled during the salem trials, there was a much bigger pool of people then, than what’s documented,” you say and Sevika turns to you

”witches then,” Sevika says and lets a giggle slip when you say “of course, have you seen the way I dress?” so wooed by your boldness because yes, she has noticed the way you dress and she thinks you’re some kind of deity, the way your dresses and skirts fall over your thighs, and the way your jean overalls highlights your arms. she’s always mesmerised.

“you are a little whimsical, you sent me the metamorphosis by Franz kafka!” She rolls are eyes at the memory, she was kind of offended when she got it because really? but then when she read it with your note at the end she knew you were referencing yourself, explaining the way your mind works without really having to tell her. So Sevika is gentle with her words around you, makes sure your needs get catered to and makes sure that you always feel secure and loved. 🏷️ @archangeldyke-all @sexysapphicshopowner @iamaboringrattat @sapphicsgirl @sevsbaby @bimboprincezz @opropheticsoul

Next, is a modern living room with the original fireplace updated.

Very large, modern dining room has an updated mid-century modern look.

The den has black walls, but the look is richly vintage. Antique furniture and a very classic tufted Chesterfield sofa.

Brand new white kitchen with a double chef's stove and pops of gray in the floor, island and light fixtures. They left an exposed brick far wall, but the bricks look new.

Love the colorful wallpaper and orange sink in the powder room, but I don't like how they installed it.

The dramatic stairs go up to a 3rd level.

A yellow bed really makes this bedroom pop.

The large main bd. is pale gray with black furniture and a pop of green area rug.

On the 3rd fl. is a spacious finished attic.

Chesterfield set

In 2015 Immortelle made this chesterfield sofa and armchair - there were 6 versions of each, for each of the swatches. Since 2015 there's been some changes in coding etc. and when trying to place the sofa in game, it caused issues and didn't want to work!

I have, therefore, taken the swatches and combined these so there's one each - with the colours: Black, brown, antique blue, olive, purple, and red. I have also ensured that these work perfectly in game! Not bad for cc almost 10 years old!

From what I can tell, Immortelle (or Brial-Immortelle?) hasn't made Sims 4 cc since 2016.

Apparently Lord Phillip Stanhope, the 4th Earl of Chesterfield (1694-1773) commissioned the first leather couch and settee. I'm not sure what shape the original Georgian chesterfield would have looked like - there's several different versions; all I can say, is that these were definitely around in the Victorian era.

That's the essence of shabby chic, a style that celebrates imperfection and embraces the beauty of timeworn treasures. Key Elements of Shabby Chic: - Distressed Furniture and Furnishings: The heart of shabby chic lies in furniture and furnishings that bear the marks of time. Think chipped paint, worn edges, and faded fabrics. These imperfections tell stories and add character to your space. - Soft Color Palette: A calming palette of whites, creams, and pastels dominates the shabby chic scene. These light and airy colors create a sense of spaciousness and serenity, allowing the distressed details to truly shine. - Floral Prints and Romantic Touches: Shabby chic loves florals!

Large windows and sheer curtains invite the sunlight in, while natural textures like wood, wicker, and linen add warmth and depth. Bringing Shabby Chic Home: Ready to infuse your own space with shabby chic charm? Here are some tips: - Start small: Don't try to overhaul your entire home at once. Begin by incorporating a few key elements, like a distressed dresser or a vintage floral rug. - Shop vintage and DIY: Flea markets, antique stores, and even your grandma's attic can be treasure troves for shabby chic finds. Don't be afraid to upcycle or refinish pieces to add your own personal touch. - Layer and mix textures: Shabby chic thrives on layers and textures. Combine soft linens with distressed wood, lace with velvet, and florals with stripes. The key is to create a sense of visual interest without feeling cluttered. - Let the light in: Maximize natural light to create a bright and airy atmosphere. Sheer curtains and light-colored walls will keep the space feeling open and inviting. - Most importantly, have fun! Shabby chic is all about creating a space that reflects your personality and makes you feel good. Don't be afraid to experiment and express yourself through your decor.

With a little creativity and a touch of nostalgia, you can create a home that feels both charming and comfortable, a haven where time seems to slow down and everyday moments feel imbued with a touch of magic. Beyond the Basics: While the core principles of shabby chic remain constant, there are endless ways to personalize the style.

Blooming from the Ashes of Tradition: Born in a time of artistic and industrial upheaval, Art Nouveau rejected the rigid formality of Victorian design and embraced the organic flow of nature. It was a rebellion against the machine, a celebration of hand-crafted artistry, and a symphony of sinuous lines, floral motifs, and vibrant colors.

Art Nouveau embraces the sinuous curves of flowers, vines, and waves, weaving them into furniture, architecture, and decorative elements. - The Language of Nature: Floral motifs reign supreme, blooming across walls, furniture, and even light fixtures. Dragonflies, butterflies, and other creatures from the natural world add a touch of whimsy and movement. - Rich Materials and Textures: Glass, stained and vibrant, takes center stage, capturing and refracting light in a kaleidoscope of colors. Natural materials like wood, stone, and wrought iron add warmth and depth to the spaces. - Whimsical Touches and Artistic Expression: Art Nouveau is a canvas for imagination. Decorative elements like stained glass windows, mosaics, and sculptures become integral parts of the design, telling stories and adding unique character. - A Unified Symphony: From architecture to furniture to the smallest detail, Art Nouveau strives for a sense of cohesion. Every element flows together, creating a harmonious and immersive experience. Substyles of Art Nouveau: - French Art Nouveau: Characterized by its elegance and floral motifs, often seen in the works of Emile Gallé and Eugène Grasset. - Belgian Art Nouveau: More flamboyant and geometric, as exemplified by the bold architectural creations of Victor Horta. - British Art Nouveau: Known for its emphasis on craftsmanship and natural materials, seen in the designs of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Bringing Art Nouveau Home: While Art Nouveau's heyday may have passed, its captivating spirit can still be incorporated into modern homes. Here are some ways to add a touch of its magic: - Embrace floral patterns: Wallpaper, upholstery, or even throw pillows can bring a touch of nature's vibrancy to your space. - Let the light flow: Stained glass panels or window hangings can add color and create a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow. - Choose furniture with curves: Look for pieces with flowing lines and organic shapes to capture the essence of the movement. - Incorporate art and decorative elements: Sculptures, mosaics, or even vintage Art Nouveau posters can add a touch of artistic flair. - Don't be afraid to mix and match: Art Nouveau thrives on individuality. Combine elements from different substyles or eras to create a space that reflects your unique personality. Beyond the Basics: - Play with colors: Jewel tones like emerald green, sapphire blue, and deep burgundy create a dramatic yet elegant backdrop. - Incorporate natural materials: Wood, stone, and metal add warmth and texture to the space, grounding the artistic elements. - Don't forget the details: Light fixtures, door handles, and even cabinet knobs can be chosen to echo the organic forms and floral motifs of the style. - Most importantly, have fun! Art Nouveau is about celebrating life, nature, and artistic expression. Let your creativity flow and embrace the joy of creating a space that feels both beautiful and personal. Art Nouveau's legacy goes beyond aesthetics. It reminds us of the beauty and inspiration found in nature, the power of artistic expression, and the importance of creating spaces that nourish our souls. So, open your doors to the symphony of nature, let your imagination take flight, and experience the enduring magic of Art Nouveau in your own home.

The New Classic: How to Make Timeless Design Feel Fresh and Modern

Timeless design is the art of creating spaces that feel enduring, elegant, and always in style. But how do you make classic design feel fresh and relevant in today’s world? The key is to blend traditional elements with modern touches, creating a balance that feels both sophisticated and contemporary. Here’s how to give classic design a modern twist while maintaining its enduring appeal.

1. Mix Traditional and Contemporary Furniture

One of the best ways to create a modern take on classic design is by mixing traditional furniture pieces with more contemporary ones. For example, pair a vintage-inspired sofa with a sleek, minimalist coffee table or mix an antique wood cabinet with modern, streamlined chairs. This fusion of old and new adds visual interest and keeps the space feeling dynamic without losing the timeless charm of traditional design.

2. Embrace Clean Lines and Minimalism

While classic design often involves ornate detailing, a more modern approach focuses on simplicity. To keep a timeless design feeling fresh, look for furniture with clean lines and a less-is-more attitude. Think of a classic Chesterfield sofa, but in a more subdued, streamlined shape, or a traditional wingback chair with modern upholstery. Clean lines allow the design to feel fresh, without losing its sophistication.

3. Use a Neutral Palette with Pops of Color

A neutral color palette—think whites, beiges, grays, and blacks—is at the heart of timeless design. But to make it feel modern, add pops of bold color through art, accessories, or furniture. A rich emerald green or navy blue throw pillow, or a statement piece of artwork, can bring energy to a neutral room without overpowering its classic elegance. This small infusion of color gives the space a modern feel without sacrificing its timeless foundation.

4. Incorporate Modern Materials

Classic design often relies on traditional materials like wood, leather, and brass. To make it feel more modern, integrate materials that are both fresh and timeless. Think marble countertops, polished concrete floors, or glass and metal lighting fixtures. The mix of old-world materials with newer, sleeker finishes adds a contemporary edge to a traditional space, while maintaining a sense of elegance.

5. Reinterpret Patterns and Textures

Classic design often incorporates patterns like stripes, damasks, and florals. To give these elements a modern twist, reinterpret them with updated materials or a more minimalist approach. For example, instead of heavy floral curtains, opt for a subtle floral print on a throw pillow or rug. Likewise, geometric patterns or abstract art in place of traditional damask can create visual interest while keeping the space feeling fresh and contemporary.

6. Focus on Statement Lighting

Lighting is one of the most powerful tools for updating a classic space. A traditional chandelier can be modernized by choosing one with a sleek, contemporary design. Likewise, instead of traditional lamps, try sculptural or statement light fixtures made from materials like metal or glass. Mixing old and new lighting styles—like pairing a classic brass floor lamp with a modern pendant light—adds instant modernity to any room.

7. Add Subtle Tech Upgrades

Classic design doesn’t have to be at odds with modern technology. To keep your space feeling current, add subtle tech upgrades that blend seamlessly into the design. A built-in sound system, smart thermostats, or a hidden TV in an antique cabinet allow you to enjoy the benefits of modern technology without compromising the timeless feel of the space. These invisible upgrades ensure your home is both stylish and functional.

Conclusion

The beauty of classic design is its ability to stand the test of time. But by blending traditional elements with fresh, modern touches, you can create a space that feels as relevant today as it will in the years to come. Whether it’s through furniture, lighting, or materials, mixing old and new helps to keep timeless design feeling fresh, while honoring the elegance and sophistication that makes it so enduring.
