The house chesterfield, cut for one. Deep-buttoned, hand-studded, rolled arms. The Winston armchair holds a corner the way most lounges hold a room.
Commissioned in your choice of thirty hides, on a hardwood frame built to patina.
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.

Genuinely impressed. The arms are properly rolled, not squared off like the cheap ones.


Really lovely piece. The frame does not move at all when you get in and out. Bought it for the man cave and it has not disappointed. Worth the wait.

Very pleased. The buttoning is all done by hand and it shows.

Worth every cent. We bought it for the office and it takes daily traffic without showing it.

Really lovely piece. Nothing creaks, which was the thing that put me off the cheaper ones. A retirement present to ourselves and worth every dollar. The twelve week wait is real, but they were upfront about it.

very pleased. very happy

Very beautiful piece. The deep buttoning is very neat. We use it every day. I am very satisfied.
Really happy with it. The cushions have held their shape completely. Bought it for my wife and she has claimed it entirely.
Styled it with a jute rug and a brass floor lamp and the room finally looks finished. The rolled arms are the detail that makes it, they're properly rolled rather than that squared-off thing everyone is doing now.
Really lovely piece. The arms are properly rolled, not squared off like the cheap ones. We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests. Very happy.
Really happy with it. The studs are set flush, no rough edges. The rolled arms take up more width than you would think.
Very good quality. The deep buttoning is very neat. My wife is very happy with it. Thank you Rumpus.
Delighted with it. The studs are set flush, no rough edges. It went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished. The crew rang the day before to confirm, which I appreciated.
Genuinely impressed. Cannot fault it.
He had a corner of the garage he called an office and I wanted to give him something that made it feel like a proper room. I picked the Caramel after they posted us the swatch book, which I'd recommend doing because the photos on the site read much lighter than the real hide. He has not sat anywhere else since 😄

Very beautiful piece. The leather is thick and soft. We use it every day. I am very satisfied.
Really happy with it. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it.
could not be happier. you can knock the frame and hear that it is hardwood. bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently
very good buy. they took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does
No complaints at all. The arms are properly rolled, not squared off like the cheap ones. It is in the living room and every visitor comments on it. 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.
Absolutely thrilled. The stitching is straight the whole way round. We replaced a ten year old lounge and the difference is night and day. The twelve week wait is real, but they were upfront about it.
No complaints about the chair itself, it is very well made. The delivery was a shambles though. Booked a window, nobody showed, no call. Rang the next day and it turned up that afternoon with no warning while I was out. Wife had to deal with it. Three stars is for the whole experience not the product.
Fair call Tom, and I'm sorry. That leg is run by a third party freight company and a missed window with no phone call is not good enough. We've raised it with them and we've since changed how we confirm the day before. Glad the chair itself is up to standard.
Absolutely thrilled. The buttoning is all done by hand and it shows. The lead time is long, plan for it. I compared this against the big chains before ordering and there is not much at the price that competes on hide quality.
Very beautiful chair, my friends always ask where I buy it. The colour is exactly same like the sample they send. Thank you to the team, very professional.
everything we hoped for. the arms are properly rolled, not squared off like the cheap ones. the rolled arms take up more width than you would think
So glad we went with this one. The studs are set flush, no rough edges.
Worth every cent. It is the first sofa we have owned that looks better than the day it arrived.
Genuinely impressed. It feels like it was built by someone who cared. Arrived without a mark on it after a long haul. No regrets.
Absolutely thrilled. The arms are properly rolled, not squared off like the cheap ones.
Best furniture purchase we have made. The feet are solid timber, not plastic caps. Arrived without a mark on it after a long haul. It is a firm sit for the first month or two.
Not the experience I hoped for. Delivery window was missed twice and I had to chase both times.

A lovely thing.
It has completely changed the room.
The quality is very good. Strong frame, you can feel it is not cheap. My wife is very happy with it. Recommend.
So glad we went with this one. It has that proper club look without feeling stuffy. Bought it for the granny flat and mum has claimed it permanently. Bought a pair for the barber shop, clients ask about them constantly.
Really happy with it. The hide is top grain and you can see it at the cut edges. Delivery was on the day they said. The lead time is long, plan for it.
Delighted with it. The hide is top grain and you can see it at the cut edges. Bought it for the man cave and it has not disappointed. 😍
Very pleased. We got it for the holiday house and it has taken a season of guests.
Very good buy... It has that proper club look without feeling stuffy... It is in the front room and it anchors the whole space... The twelve week wait is real, but they were upfront about it.
Ordered it in February and it turned up the second week of May, which is exactly what they told me at the start. My wife and I have been looking at chesterfields for about two years and never pulled the trigger because of the price. No regrets now. The buttoning is done properly, not glued on like the one we sat in at a big chain store.
I did a lot of comparing before I bought. Went and sat in the Moran, the Nick Scali equivalent and a couple of the reproduction chesterfields off Facebook Marketplace. This is a genuinely better chair than the two retail ones and about the same money.
The frame doesn't move at all when you get in and out, which was the thing that put me off the cheaper ones. The hide is top grain and you can see it at the edges where it's cut.
Marking it four rather than five only because the seat is firmer than I expected for the first month. It has softened since. If you like sinking into a chair this is not that chair.

Mixed feelings on this one. It arrived later than quoted and nobody rang to tell me. The buttoning does collect crumbs, you need the vacuum nozzle now and then. Three stars is for the whole experience, not the product.
Thanks for taking the time, and sorry it landed short of what we promised. We have changed how we confirm delivery days because of feedback like yours.
Rapt with it. It has softened beautifully over the first couple of months. It is in our Airbnb and has survived a hundred guests.
No complaints at all. The seams are done properly, I checked them first.
very good buy. the proportions are right, it does not look bulky for its size. they took the packaging away with them, which not everyone does. nothing to complain about
ten out of ten from us. the tufting is even right across the back. bought it for the man cave and it has not disappointed. would buy again
Chuffed with it. The tufting is even right across the back. Bought it for my husband and he has not sat anywhere else since. Do it.
a lovely thing. the studs are set flush, no rough edges. sits in the study and it is where i end up every night. delivery was on the day they said

could not be happier. the leather has already started to patina on the arms. it went in the extension and it finally made that room feel finished. would recommend
Gorgeous chair and the espresso hide is so much richer in person. Only knocking a star off because it is BIG and I wish the dimensions had been more obvious before I ordered. Measure your space, seriously.
The quality is very good. Strong frame, you can feel it is not cheap. My children love it. Delivery was on time, thank you.

Exactly what we wanted. The back is finished as well as the front, which matters if it floats in a room.

Better than I expected. It smells like a proper leather shop, which I did not expect to care about. It is by the fire and that corner is now the best seat in the house. The rolled arms take up more width than you would think.
No complaints at all. Worth the wait.
Ten out of ten from us. The leather has already started to patina on the arms.
Not the experience I hoped for. It arrived later than quoted and nobody rang to tell me. 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.
Exactly what we wanted. The twelve week wait is real, but they were upfront about it.

Mixed feelings on this one. The piece itself is well made, the problem was getting it here. Three stars is for the whole experience, not the product.
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.
bought this to replace an old recliner that finally died. reckon this one will outlast me
best furniture purchase we have made

The chair is very nice quality. Leather is thick and smells good. I am happy with it. Only problem is I wait almost four months, they tell me twelve weeks but it is more. If you are not in hurry then it is fine.
Thanks Nguyen, and sorry about the extra fortnight on yours. That container was held at the port longer than we'd planned for and we should have called you rather than waiting for you to chase us. Glad the hide landed well.
Good quality and good price. Strong frame, you can feel it is not cheap. All my relatives ask where I buy it. Recommend.
rapt with it. the colour is richer in person than any photo manages. the two blokes who brought it in were polite and quick. waited a bit over three months and it was worth it
Everything we hoped for. It has that proper club look without feeling stuffy. Cannot fault it.

My husband passed in 2023 and I have slowly been making the house mine again. This chair sits by the window and I read in it every afternoon. It is the nicest thing I have bought myself in a very long time. THANK YOU.

Beautiful chair... exactly what I wanted for the front room. The two fellas who brought it in took their shoes off without being asked which I thought was lovely.

Really lovely piece.
Very nice sofa. The leather is thick and soft. My children love it. Thank you Rumpus.
We bought the Understudy ottoman last year and were pleased enough to come back for the armchair. It is the same hide and it has aged in beautifully next to it. Ordering was straightforward and Luca answered every one of my questions about the leather without any pressure to buy.
genuinely impressed. the stitching is straight the whole way round. would recommend
