About the Item

This sofa is a contemporary re-edition of the Howard Sons “Portarlington” model, a form closely associated with late-19th-century English domestic design. The proportions are faithful to the original: a softly sloped back, low scroll arms and a long seat that emphasises comfort and ease. Upholstered in Susan Deliss’ Ticking (Forest Green / Basil), the sofa combines a traditional striped textile with a restrained, natural palette. The fabric’s fine weave and tonal variation complement the understated profile of the piece without dominating it. The construction follows established upholstery methods: a fully sprung seat for support, natural fillings for resilience, and a down-wrapped cushion for softness. The skirted base completes the form, giving it a tailored, quietly formal appearance. This re-edition merges historical reference with contemporary craftsmanship - an understated yet characterful anchor for living spaces, reading rooms or bedrooms.
