WTF Moment: Concrete Chesterfield

Mar 24, 2011 | Uncategorized | 10 comments


If you have been reading Swoon Worthy for any length of time, you’ll know I’m completely and utterly in love with my fabulous velvet Chesterfield sofa.  It was the most money we’ve ever spent on any one piece of furniture and every day I want to give it a little kiss and cuddle when I come in from a long hard day at work (of course, just after I do the same with W, I mean we don’t want to play favourites here *cough*).

So why on earth would anyone want to buy one of these absolutely beautiful pieces in ummm…concrete?

Apparently, Selfridges will be carrying this delight in their summer range.  And it will only cost you Β£4,000 for the privilege of this pile-inducing wonder.

Just don’t try to fluff those sagging seat cushions.

Your wtf moment brought to you from here.

    Wow, really? <br /><br />I suppose it would make a nice outdoor &#39;bench&#39; alternative (for the wealthy!), to sit out on a &#39;chesterfield&#39; in this gorgeous sunshine we&#39;re finally getting. <br /><br />(I really really love your chesterfield and would also kiss and cuddle it if it were mine!) <br /><br />Meera xx

    Velvet = good. Concrete = bad. Who comes up with these ideas?!?
