Having said thatit’s not infallible and if it isn’t maintained and cleaned regularlyits sophisticatedimpressive appearance could start to fadeWe have always had Chesterfield sofas inside our family and they never fail to become the centerpiece of the room in which they liveThis isof course due to their classy and fashionable appearancebut also due to an easy and straight-forward cleaning regime that we all swear by.

According to whether your Chesterfield Sofa is leather or in rarer cases velvetthere are two different cleaning approaches to make use ofWith minimal workyou too can remain proud of this gorgeous sofa for decades into the future.


LEATHER CHESTERFIELD SOFAS;


DAILY: Keep a large container of distilled water in a convenient location and work with the water to moisten a softnon-abrasive towelThenlightly wipe down the the whole sofa using the clothremoving dirt and hydrating the leather. (Distilled water is applied due to the fact the high chlorine content in most plain tap water leads to damage to leather as time goes on)

WEEKLY: Making use of a soft brush fitting on your vacuum cleanerhoover beneath cushions and any place else dirt and dust might build upNever vacuum without a brush fitting as applying a standard nozzle to the leather will mark and damage it.

MONTHLY: Use an approved leather cleaning and conditioning compoundadhering to the recommendations located on the reverseThere are many products and solutions to pick from but they all remove ingrained dirt from the surface and soften the leatherleaving it supple.


*Never choose wet wipes to wipe down leather surfaces - although it will likely create a good finish it, without a doubt, will greatly deteriorate the health of the sofa.



VELVET CHESTERFIELD SOFAS

Velvet Chesterfields can be a different kettle of fish due to the fact that they draw considerably more dirt and hairs (especially if you have pets or hirsute family members!). Velvets can be manufactured with different types of materials (silksynthetics etc.) which means do examine manufacturer’s label for specific cleaning guidelinesHaving said thatthese following steps can easily be used on all velvet sofas.

DAILYAgain using a soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleanerrun it against the nap of the velvet (raisedfuzzy surfaceeliminating any dirt from beneathUse the same approach below the cushions.

MONTHLYUsing a water-freedry cleaning fluidspray lightly upon any stained or dirty areasEnsure that the fabric does not end up becoming overly wetApply a clean towel to the area and gently dab.

Never scour while using the cloth because this will cause damage to the fabric.
