It’s all about the service
The buying process itself is another factor contributing to the cost of Chesterfield sofas. Compared to buying from traditional retailers, buying a Chesterfield is a highly personal process.
With so many options available, and such a large investment, customers often have lots of questions before they make a final decision and need the manufacturer to guide them through the process and empower them to make the best decisions about intricate aspects of the sofa.
Delivering a service like this requires a high level of knowledge and experience, which is simply not required of traditional retailers. As artisanal Chesterfield manufacturers are not focused on simply selling a product, but also guiding and supporting the customer – they must cover this cost in the final selling price.
Although mass-market sofas are cheaper than artisanal-made Chesterfield sofas, they represent poor value for money. Designed and built to capture fleeting trends, they will need to be replaced in 4-5 years.
Compared to mass-produced sofas, it’s clear to understand why the Chesterfield design is so highly regarded, today more than ever: Meticulously constructed by hand, using robust and enduring materials, an authentic, high-quality Chesterfield that is designed and built to last will stay with your family for generations.
A Chesterfield sofa is certainly an investment, but the justifications are plentiful. A quality piece of furniture that is timeless, used every day and lasts a lifetime is not only the essence of good interior design – but is sustainable and can be passed down the generations.
