The Havana rolls tan hide into ribbed channels and wraps it in polished aluminium: part cigar lounge, part flight deck. Cold metal, warm leather; the contrast does the talking.
A chair with somewhere to be. Commissioned in your choice of thirty hides, riveted and stitched by hand.
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.
Top-grain hide on a hardwood frame. Seams stitched by hand, brass set one stud at a time, then oiled back to a sheen.
Nothing about it is quick. That is rather the point.

Better than I expected. The ribbing catches the light and gives it real depth. Sits in the study and it is where I end up every night. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.

Ten out of ten from us. Bought a pair for the barber shop, clients ask about them constantly.

Really happy with it. It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention.
Chuffed with it... The texture is the whole thing, photos flatten it completely... Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it.
Solid chair, looks great, no complaints.
A lovely thing. It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space.
Genuinely impressed. The ribbing catches the light and gives it real depth. Very pleased with the whole thing.
delighted with it. the leather has already started to patina on the arms. they took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does. waited a bit over three months and it was worth it
Chuffed with it. The hide is top grain and you can see it at the cut edges. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it. It was a 60th present and he still talks about it. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention.
Everything we hoped for. The proportions are right, it does not look bulky for its size. We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it. No regrets.
Everything we hoped for. The colour is richer in person than any photo manages. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention.
Very pleased. We put it in the media room and nobody sits anywhere else now. Got it for dad's 70th and he was speechless, which never happens. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it.
Good chair. Comfortable, well built, looks the part. Nothing more to say really.
Bought a pair. They flank the fireplace and they've completely changed how the room reads. Very happy indeed.
disappointing, and i had high hopes. quality is not in question, the communication was. the ribbing traps dust in the grooves so it wants a brush attachment weekly. 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.
Could not be happier. The ribbing runs across the back, arms and seat, not just the back like the cheap copies. Would recommend.
It has completely changed the room. It is the first sofa we have owned that looks better than the day it arrived. It went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished. We bought it for the office and it takes daily traffic without showing it. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention. Took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted.
Very pleased. The stitching is straight the whole way round. It is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. Took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted.
The tan is so much richer in person. Sits in the corner by the window and it's the best seat in the house by a mile.
Really happy with it. The ribbing runs across the back, arms and seat, not just the back like the cheap copies.
Worth every cent. The stitching is straight the whole way round.
Rapt with it. The ribbing catches the light and gives it real depth. Bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently. The lead time is long, plan for it. The ribbed back has not got much lumbar support for long sessions.
Delighted with it. We replaced a ten year old lounge and the difference is night and day. The ribbed back has not got much lumbar support for long sessions. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.
absolutely thrilled. the cushions have held their shape completely
Better than I expected. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it. Cannot fault it.
Very good buy. Took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted.

No complaints at all. The ribbing catches the light and gives it real depth. The ribbing traps dust in the grooves so it wants a brush attachment weekly. Nothing to complain about.
Great chair. Only note is the ribbed back doesn't have a lot of lumbar support if you're sitting for hours. A cushion sorts it.
Everything we hoped for. It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space.
Very good quality. The ribbing is very neat. My family is very happy. Delivery was on time, thank you.
Very good chair, strong and comfortable. The delivery was fast and the man was polite. Recommend.

Genuinely impressed. Very happy. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.
So glad we went with this one... The seams are done properly, I checked them first.
I buy this chair for my father who is 81 years old. He can get in and out easy which was my worry. He says it is the best chair he ever have. Thank you very much for helping me choose.

Best furniture purchase we have made. The ribbing catches the light and gives it real depth. The two blokes who brought it in were polite and quick. The ribbed back has not got much lumbar support for long sessions.
Very good buy. The leather has already started to patina on the arms. A retirement present to ourselves and worth every dollar.
Really happy with it. The texture is the whole thing, photos flatten it completely. It is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. The lead time is long, plan for it. Money well spent.
Rapt with it. It is heavy in the way good furniture is heavy. Sits in the study and it is where I end up every night. No regrets.
My husband and I have had it six months now and it has softened beautifully. It was quite firm at the start which surprised us, but a friend who buys leather told us that is exactly what you want.

Very beautiful piece. The ribbing is very neat. My wife is very happy with it. Thank you to the team.
Very beautiful piece. The leather is thick and soft. We use it every day. Delivery was on time, thank you.
Worth every cent. The texture is the whole thing, photos flatten it completely.
genuinely impressed. the texture is the whole thing, photos flatten it completely. took about thirteen weeks, which is what they quoted
Genuinely impressed. The frame does not move at all when you get in and out. Went in the rumpus room, which felt appropriate. Cannot fault it.
A lovely thing. You can knock the frame and hear that it is hardwood. Recommend without hesitation.
Worth every cent. Nothing creaks, which was the thing that put me off the cheaper ones.
Best furniture purchase we have made. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it.
Really lovely piece. It replaced a fabric one that had gone shapeless. Bought it for my wife and she has claimed it entirely. Would buy again.
