The Tanner is cut generously and stitched honestly: oversized slab cushions in tan top-grain hide, with the seams worn on the outside like a maker's signature.
Four seats of it. The long wall, solved. 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.
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.

Could not be happier. It feels like it was built by someone who cared. Bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently. Bought a pair for the barber shop, clients ask about them constantly. The two blokes who brought it in were polite and quick.

Really lovely piece... The hide is thick, not the thin stuff you get on the chain store versions... We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests... Delivery was on the day they said... No regrets.

Huge, soft and gorgeous. We have three teenagers and for the first time nobody argues about seats.
Ordered the Caramel expecting the mid brown in the product photos and what arrived is noticeably more orange. I did not order the swatch book which I now realise was a mistake, but the site photos are misleading and I'd say that's on them as much as me. Build quality is genuinely good, this is purely about the colour.

Mel, this comes up enough that we treat it as our problem, not yours. Screen photos of leather are unreliable and we should be blocking checkout until someone has either seen a swatch or spoken to us about the hide. We're building that in. In the meantime we've sent you the full swatch book and we'd like to talk about re-covering yours at cost.
Exactly what my wife and I wanted. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated.
delighted with it. waited a bit over three months and it was worth it
Best thing in the house. Everyone ends up on it, which I gather is the point.
Really happy with it. Sits in the study and it is where I end up every night. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated. Do it.
a lovely thing. the seat is deep enough to actually lie on
Genuinely impressed. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find.
Four metres of clean tan leather. It's the whole room and it's meant to be. Very well made and the seat cushions have held their shape.
Very pleased. The two blokes who brought it in were polite and quick. Nothing to complain about.
Rapt with it. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it.
Rapt with it. It has softened beautifully over the first couple of months. Bought it for my husband and he has not sat anywhere else since. It is a more upright sit than it looks.
everything we hoped for. it went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished. went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention. it is a more upright sit than it looks
It has completely changed the room. We replaced a ten year old lounge and the difference is night and day. Money well spent. 😍
Better than I expected. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on. Went in without a scratch on the walls, which given the size deserves a mention. The track arm is too narrow to perch on.
Chuffed with it. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find.
Great sofa. It is genuinely enormous and it came in two sections which I wasn't told about beforehand. Worked out fine and honestly made delivery easier, but I'd have liked to know.
So glad we went with this one. The seat is deep enough to actually lie on. The cushions need squaring up every couple of days. Very happy.
No complaints at all. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. Went in the rumpus room, which felt appropriate. It is in our Airbnb and has survived a hundred guests.
Worth every cent. The seams are done properly, I checked them first. It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space.
Very comfortable and beautifully made. Waited fourteen weeks and I'd do it again.
ten out of ten from us. the crew rang the day before to confirm, which i appreciated
chuffed with it. no buttons, no fuss, it just does the job. delivery was on the day they said. the twelve week wait is real, but they were upfront about it
Ten out of ten from us. The back is finished as well as the front, which matters if it floats in a room. It is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it. The track arm is too narrow to perch on.
very pleased. the seat is deep enough to actually lie on. it replaced a fabric one that had gone shapeless. would recommend
Genuinely impressed. No buttons, no fuss, it just does the job. Worth the wait.
Very big sofa, good for our family gathering. Quality is very good and the colour is beautiful. Thank you Rumpus.
Good quality and good price. The clean lines is very neat. My wife is very happy with it. Delivery was on time, thank you.
Exactly what we wanted. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find. Bought a pair for the barber shop, clients ask about them constantly. The lead time is long, plan for it.
Absolutely thrilled. You can knock the frame and hear that it is hardwood. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it. The cushions need squaring up every couple of days. Very pleased with the whole thing.
so glad we went with this one. no buttons, no fuss, it just does the job. worth the wait
Absolutely thrilled. It is heavy in the way good furniture is heavy. It was a 60th present and he still talks about it. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it.
Very good buy. It does not date the way a fussier piece would. The track arm is too narrow to perch on. Worth the wait.
Really lovely piece... Cannot fault it.
It has completely changed the room. Recommend without hesitation.
Could not be happier... No buttons, no fuss, it just does the job... Went in the rumpus room, which felt appropriate.
No complaints at all. It is a top grain hide on a clean modern shape, which is genuinely hard to find. Delivery was on the day they said. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.
Everything my wife and I hoped for. The stitching is straight the whole way round. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated. Waited a bit over three months and it was worth it. Very happy.
