Kingcome Sofas
An honest Kingcome Sofas review — ratings, warranty, prices & UK showrooms
Founded in 1971 by WWII flying ace Group Captain Brian Kingcome and his wife Lesley in Totnes, Devon, Kingcome Sofas is one of Britain's most prestigious luxury upholstery makers. Every piece is handcrafted by expert cabinetmakers, wood turners, upholsterers and polishers using kiln-dried hardwood frames and traditional English techniques. Now part of the Colefax Group plc since 1989, Kingcome creates bespoke furniture that blends English heritage with contemporary design, favoured by interior designers and featured in House & Garden.
The verdict
5/5Absolute belterfeels like a cloud.“Founded by a WWII flying ace and handcrafted in Devon — you couldn't script a more British origin story if you tried. Kingcome Sofas are the interior designer's secret weapon, and once you've sat on one, you understand why. Part of the Colefax Group since 1989, but the artisan spirit remains utterly intact.”
