Product Information
Description
Designed for rooms that need one chair with character rather than bulk, the Elston takes familiar British upholstery details and pares them back into a more compact form. Its footprint is easier to place than a larger armchair, but the combination of tweed, leather and buttoning still gives it enough presence to feel properly considered.
Hunting Lodge Harris Tweed brings much of that character. Used across the seat and outer sections, it adds a subtle herringbone texture and a softer, more grounded surface than a plain woven fabric. At closer range, that texture becomes a real part of the chair’s appeal, giving it a quieter kind of detail that suits calmer interiors.
Tan leather across the high back and rolled arms changes the look in a different way. It sharpens the outline of the chair, adds warmth against the tweed and gives the upper section more definition than an all-fabric design would have. Deep buttoning across the leather back reinforces that effect, adding structure and helping the Elston feel more resolved as an upholstery piece rather than a simple accent chair.
Made by Vintage Sofa Company, this is a chair that works particularly well in bedrooms, reading corners, studies and smaller sitting areas where a larger armchair would feel too dominant. Tapered wooden legs keep the base light, while the overall shape brings enough finish and substance to make the chair feel useful as well as decorative.

FAQ's
What makes the Elston different from a more traditional wing chair?
Its shape is cleaner and more compact. Classic upholstery details such as rolled arms and buttoning are still there, but the chair avoids the larger, more enclosing feel of a full wingback, which makes it easier to place in smaller spaces.
Why is Harris Tweed used on the seat and outer sections rather than across the whole chair?
That layout gives the chair more balance. Tweed adds texture and heritage character where it is seen and used most closely, while the leather back and arms give the outline more contrast and definition.
What does the buttoned leather back add to the design?
More than decoration, it gives the upper part of the chair depth and structure. It also helps the Elston feel more finished and tailored than a plain-backed accent chair.
Does this chair feel more contemporary or more traditional?
It sits between the two. Harris Tweed, leather and buttoning lean into traditional upholstery, while the smaller footprint and tapered legs make the overall silhouette lighter and more current.
Would the Elston work well in a bedroom or reading corner?
Yes. Its compact scale makes it especially useful in bedrooms, studies and reading spaces where you want a chair with proper finish and comfort, but not the size of a larger armchair.
How does the tan leather affect the overall look?
More warmth, contrast and shape definition come from the leather. It frames the back and arms clearly and gives the chair a richer finish than an all-tweed version would have.
Do the tapered wooden legs make much difference visually?
Yes. Lighter legs help keep the whole chair from feeling heavy. On a compact design like this, that makes a noticeable difference to how easy it feels to place in a room.
