The Drover is squared away and easy about it: clean track arms, loose cushions, vintage cognac top-grain hide that improves with every season of use.
Three seats of reliable company. Commissioned in your choice of thirty hides.
Top-grain hide is cut and built by hand, so allow roughly ±2cm.
Hide sourced from Australia, Brazil and Argentina, hand-cut and set over a kiln-dried hardwood frame. The same leather covers every surface of the piece, front and back. Built to patina and to last.
The frame. Solid hardwood, mortise-and-tenon joints with corner blocks, kiln-dried to 8 to 12 per cent moisture before a single cut.
Seat suspension. Serpentine sinuous springs across the seat base, over a non-woven fabric support, under high-resilience seat foam at 35 to 40kg per cubic metre. It is the arrangement that keeps a seat stable and holds its shape over years rather than seasons.
3-year warranty on every piece, covering the frame and workmanship.
Commissioned to order, approximately 12 to 14 weeks to build. Delivered Australia-wide.
Who is Rumpus?
Rumpus is the leather-furniture house of A Man & His Cave, an Australian business established in 2020. Six years on, we design and commission top-grain leather lounges and chairs, built to order and backed by Australian support experts who know this range inside out.
Is my piece covered by warranty?
Yes. Every Rumpus piece carries a 3-year warranty covering the frame and workmanship.
Can I get a custom size?
Catalogue pieces are built on fixed tooling, so the dimensions listed are the dimensions of the piece. A custom size is a one-off design build with a design fee from $800, priced per piece. Call us on +61 2 7248 6718 for an exact number.
Are these made to order?
Yes. Each piece is commissioned in the hide you choose and built for your room, roughly 12 to 14 weeks from order.
Can I see the leather before I buy?
Book a call and a specialist will walk you through how each hide looks and wears, and can send photographs of the exact leather in natural light.
Where do you deliver?
Australia-wide. Pop your postcode into the delivery estimate above for a rate on this piece.
How do I care for top-grain leather?
Wipe with a dry cloth, condition it every few months and keep it out of direct sun. Top-grain hide is meant to patina and only gets better with age.

Nothing about it is quick. That is rather the point.

Ten out of ten from us. The hide is top grain and you can see it at the cut edges. Delivery was on the day they said.

absolutely thrilled. it is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. delivery was on the day they said. would buy again

We are very happy with this sofa. It is big enough for all the family and the quality is much better than the shops here for same price.
Really lovely piece. The seams are done properly, I checked them first.
Delighted with it. It went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished.
Everything we hoped for. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find. It was a 60th present and he still talks about it.
Beautiful sofa, so comfortable, and the cognac is a proper warm brown rather than the orange you sometimes get.
Really happy with it. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. Delivery was on the day they said. No regrets.
very good buy
Excellent sofa. The seat is a touch shallower than the Coburn so it's a more upright sit. Suits me, might not suit a serial sloucher.
So glad we went with this one. Sits in the study and it is where I end up every night. Delivery was on the day they said. Would buy again.
Exactly what we wanted. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on.
Absolutely thrilled... The back is finished as well as the front, which matters if it floats in a room... We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests.
Could not be happier. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. Arrived without a mark on it after a long haul. The lead time is long, plan for it.
I came to the site for the chesterfields and left with this. No buttoning, straight track arms, cognac hide. It doesn't announce itself and after nine months I'm far more certain I'd still like it in ten years than I would have been with something more decorative.
So glad we went with this one. We put it in the media room and nobody sits anywhere else now. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated. Do it.
Delighted with it. No buttons, no fuss, it just does the job. It was a 60th present and he still talks about it. They took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does. It is a more upright sit than it looks.
wanted to love it. the colour reads noticeably darker in the room than it did on screen. three stars is for the whole experience, not the product
better than i expected. very happy
Genuinely impressed. The feet are solid timber, not plastic caps. Took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted.
Third Rumpus piece and the most used. The clean lines have aged better than I expected.
Very nice sofa. The leather is thick and soft. My children love it. I am very satisfied.
Worth every cent. The leather has already started to patina on the arms. Bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.

No complaints at all. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. 🙌
Very good sofa, my family use it every day and it still look new. The leather is soft and thick. Thank you very much for good service.
Rapt with it. It has softened beautifully over the first couple of months. Got it for dad's 70th and he was speechless, which never happens. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention. Nothing to complain about.
Worth every cent. We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests.
Exactly what we wanted. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on. Bought it for my husband and he has not sat anywhere else since. No regrets.
Solid as. Whole family on it and no sag anywhere.
very good buy. the frame does not move at all when you get in and out. they took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does
So glad my wife and I went with this one. Bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently.
Not the experience I hoped for... The colour reads noticeably darker in the room than it did on screen... The track arm is too narrow to perch on... I would still buy it, I would just go in with clearer expectations.
Appreciate you being straight about it. The freight leg is the weakest part of our chain and we are working on it. Glad the piece itself is up to standard.
ten out of ten from us. it is the first sofa we have owned that looks better than the day it arrived. we put it in the media room and nobody sits anywhere else now. the crew rang the day before to confirm, which i appreciated
Better than I expected. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on. Bought it for the man cave and it has not disappointed. We bought it for the office and it takes daily traffic without showing it.
Really happy with it. The cushions have held their shape completely. Sits in the study and it is where I end up every night. Bought a pair for the barber shop, clients ask about them constantly. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated.
Good honest lounge. No fuss, well made, arrived on time.
It has completely changed the room. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find. It is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. ❤️
Disappointing, and I had high hopes... It is firmer than I expected and it has not softened as much as promised... Get the swatch book before you order, learn from me.
Appreciate you being straight about it. The freight leg is the weakest part of our chain and we are working on it. Glad the piece itself is up to standard.
Very pleased. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find. The cushions need squaring up every couple of days. ❤️

Not the experience I hoped for... Quality is not in question, the communication was... The track arm is too narrow to perch on... I would still buy it, I would just go in with clearer expectations.
Sorry about this one. We should have called you rather than leaving you to chase us. That is on us and it has changed.
Could not be happier.
Really happy with it. It feels like it was built by someone who cared. Got it for dad's 70th and he was speechless, which never happens. The two blokes who brought it in were polite and quick. Nothing to complain about.
Everything my wife and I hoped for. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find.
The quality is very good. The leather is thick and soft. My family is very happy. Thank you Rumpus.
it has completely changed the room. the stitching is straight the whole way round. went in the rumpus room, which felt appropriate. they took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does. no regrets
Very good buy. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. Cannot fault it.
Chuffed with it. No buttons, no fuss, it just does the job. Delivery was on the day they said. Took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted.
Really lovely piece. It is heavy in the way good furniture is heavy. It went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished. Would buy again.
No complaints at all. Got it for dad's 70th and he was speechless, which never happens.
Rapt with it. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. We replaced a ten year old lounge and the difference is night and day. It is a more upright sit than it looks. Recommend without hesitation. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.
Very pleased. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it.
genuinely impressed. you can knock the frame and hear that it is hardwood. it replaced a fabric one that had gone shapeless
very pleased. the seat is deep enough to actually lie on
It has completely changed the room. ❤️
Exactly what we wanted. The cushions have held their shape completely. It is in our Airbnb and has survived a hundred guests. Arrived without a mark on it after a long haul. Money well spent.
Could not be happier. It does not date the way a fussier piece would.
It has completely changed the room... The colour is richer in person than any photo manages... Went in the rumpus room, which felt appropriate.
Very good quality. The clean lines is very neat. All my relatives ask where I buy it. Thank you Rumpus.
Absolutely thrilled. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on. It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space. We bought it for the office and it takes daily traffic without showing it.
