Duresta might not be a familiar name to you, but you will soon learn that they tend to have their leather armchairs and other items for sale in such places as House of Fraser and John Lewis.
So are they worth considering when you are thinking about buying a leather armchair for your own home? You are about to find out the answer.
What types of leather armchair do they make?
These are without doubt what you would call classic designs. Some of them are quite plain, while others are styled to look like older designs, with wings on the chairs and so on.
The one thing that draws them all together and marks them out as being made by Duresta is the fact that they all have that ‘chunky’ look. You can see that they are all extremely well made, which means you should not be disappointed in what you buy – regardless of the design of leather armchair you choose.
Why should you choose a leather armchair made by them?
Firstly the quality and the finish are second to none. The website features large pictures of each leather armchair and you can see immediately that a great deal of workmanship has gone into each one. They have an online catalogue that shows you a cut out view of how they are made – and you will be impressed when you see it!
You should also seriously consider this range if you want to spend some more money on something that will last the distance. You can get much cheaper armchairs but will they last anywhere near as long as one made by Duresta? The chances are they won’t.
What price ranges do they fall into?
As we’ve mentioned above, these are in the more expensive end of the market when it comes to leather armchairs. You will probably be talking about a high three figures, or possibly even just into four figures. It does depend on where you buy the leather armchair from and which style you opt for though. Be sure to shop around because you might be able to get what you want for a cheaper price.
What kind of information can you find on their website?
The great thing about the website for Duresta is that as soon as you arrive on the home page, you can select to look at the leather finished products only. This means you don’t have to wade through lots of other finishes to find the armchairs you really want to look at.
You can then click on the picture of the armchair to go into another page. This page will give you the dimensions of the armchair for you to think about. Obviously you will need to be sure that it can fit in your room!
There is nothing else at all on these pages though, which is slightly disappointing. But if you go back to the home page you should see a link which allows you to download their latest brochure. If you click on that link a new tab will open and the PDF document will appear there in a few seconds. You can then save this to your computer if you wish. This is where all the information is, and the brochure starts off with telling you how their armchairs are made.
You can then scroll through the brochure and see all their leather armchairs in actual room settings. This gives you a much better idea of what to expect, and it makes sizing an item up a bit easier too. At the back of the catalogue you can read all the specifications and details of the materials used for the items shown. This gives you the chance to see what leather and what colour has been shown.
In conclusion
As you can see, Duresta is a company which takes its business seriously. It has an exquisite range of leather armchairs to offer you, so if you prefer the classic styling to something that is thoroughly modern, then look at their brochure.
They don’t have that many leather armchairs, but the ones they do have cover a wide range of styles with that classic look. Some have a square, boxy look, while others are more rounded. But no matter which one you decide to go for, you will find that you will be the proud recipient of an outstanding leather armchair that is built to last for a very long time.
