Their design, devoid of any jewel or excess material, is concentrated on fabrics, structure, and realization. The upholstery in leather is folded in sequence or pleated on the armrest extremes creating the branding line. In contrast, the backrest and armrests the leather is handmade, griped in a rhomboidal motif Chesterfield. A suspension system made of steel springs is placed into the sitting structure to hold the structure and shape it ergonomically to distribute weight and reduce seat mobility.

The extreme attention on details ensures from the beginning long-life design to Chester. Every single element, from the base structure made in solid beech tree and goose feathers padding, to natural leather cut by artisanal hand, all is made with high standard masterpiece quality. Since its creation in 1912 and until late Sixties, this model has been produced by many manufacturers. Since 1962 and until today, this model is mostly known because it was released by the famous Italian branded company Poltrona Frau, worldwide known for its excellence in design, raw materials created in its laboratories, and artisanal work and know-how. It is why Chester continues to be the most famous model produced by Poltrona Frau.
