Description
On offer on this occasion is possibly the last sofa you might ever need buy, it being a peerless, superb George Sherlock “Sherlock” Large 3-Seat, fixed-back sofa, dressed in a peerless, top-grade, thick-pile, plush Italian-velvet fabric in wonderful, warm burnt-orange, with pale-oak legs and brass-castors, and supplied with a trio of large, complimenting scatter-cushions.
As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this listing, George Sherlock pieces are the epitome of classic English furniture design, are of peerless quality (and comfortably of equivalent quality to a George Smith or Linley piece) and exhibit detailing and execution of an unrivalled standard.
In a world of temporary pleasures, George Sherlock create beautiful furniture built to last a lifetime and, when dressed in this sensational cloth, there can be no more elegant, welcoming example of their talents than this. Honestly, it is beyond gorgeous.
This piece is in superb, impeccably-maintained condition showing no signs of use, and is entirely free from fault, flaw or damage. Its near-perfect order reflects the TLC and gentle, light use afforded it in the past and, aside from some abrasions and hoover-dings to the legs and castors, is as gorgeous as is possible to imagine. Simply divine.
You will recognise from the images that this is a velvet of rare quality and distinction, with a length and depth of pile rarely specified or seen, and one with such an outrageously-luxurious feel and handle that it elevates the seating-experience to something way-beyond what the majority of even the very-best of sofas can achieve.
It is also worthy of mention that, inherent to this type of fabric, you will see there is a light and dark appearance to the velvet (dependant which way the pile sits in relation to the eye and prevailing light) which we have tried to illustrate in the final four images provided (the first two of which are how the velvet looks having been sat-upon a few times, with the pile randomised as will inevitably happen) and particularly in the final two images provided,
As you will see in the penultimate image of the rear of the sofa, with the pile in one direction the fabric has a deep burnt-orange appearance whilst, with the pile in the opposite direction, it lightens noticeably (and can do so randomly through normal, residential use if not corrected, as illustrated in the final image where we have disrupted the pile of the velvet both deliberately and extremely) so, needless to say, please be aware of this when considering your purchase.
Please view the images provided to confirm its sublime condition and beguiling appearance. A more striking, elegant sofa is impossible to imagine. Personally, i do not think it possible to conceive of a sofa more-beautiful than this.
Its dimensions are H-84cm, W-244cm and D-112cm, and the breathtaking seating position this iconic design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, generously-sprung back and overstuffed feather-filled seat cushions, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. It is even-more comfortable and accommodating than it is handsome, if that were even possible.
Costing in excess of £10,000 when commissioned in this special-order velvet cloth when new, it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt it will serve and delight its new owner for many years to come.
Delivery of this piece to most UK mainland addresses will cost £120, and can be organised on behalf of the winning bidder upon request using one of our hand-picked panel of specialist, fully-insured independent furniture couriers.

Last updated: 17th October 2024
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.
Please note that certain items are non-refundable, including those that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to your specific requirements.
Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
