Price History
Description
What makes our version of this timeless British classic different are the weathered oak legs. Not a brass castor so much as even sniffs near this handmade beauty. And it's also one of the snuggliest, comfiest sofas in town.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Jonesy sofa for its versatile and timeless design, making it a great cornerstone for both classic and contemporary interiors. Its clean lines and neutral tone allow it to adapt easily to different colour schemes and styles, from cosy cottage to modern minimalist spaces. It works particularly well paired with textured cushions or throws for a layered look, and can be dressed up with statement armchairs or kept understated for a sleek finish. Practical styling tips include placing it against a patterned wallpaper or a textured wall for visual interest, and using a rug underneath to anchor the seating zone. Overall, the Jonesy is a comfortable and adaptable choice that balances style and function effortlessly.

About Loaf
From Beds to Diverse Furniture
Loaf is a popular British furniture store that started as "The Sleep Room" by Charlie Marshall in 2008. Charlie used money from selling his old business and his savings to start it.
At first, they just sold beds, with Charlie researching 187 mattress and bed factories to ensure only the best products. But by 2012, they began selling other furniture like sofas, chairs, and lights, which led to its rebranding as "Loaf."
Their growth was so impressive that by 2013, they ranked 40th on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, becoming the 3rd fastest growing retailer in the UK.
Sustainability and Ethical Approach
Loaf's commitment to the environment and ethical practices is evident in their efforts to ensure sustainable sourcing. They aim for all their materials to be responsibly sourced or derived from recycled materials by 2025.
For instance, the timber in their sofa frames comes from responsibly managed forests. Additionally, they're working towards reducing their carbon emissions, improving packaging to be 100% recyclable, and respecting animal welfare.
Notably, their wool will be certified to the Responsible Wool Standard by 2023. Loaf also ensures that all their employees, or 'Loafers,' are paid at least the 'real' Living Wage.
Locations and Community Engagement
Presently, Loaf boasts ten showrooms, uniquely referred to as 'slowrooms,' mainly around London. Beyond just business, they're active in community engagement.
They have partnered with St Mungo's, a leading UK charity, aiming to spend 10,000 hours over the next three years volunteering and raising funds to combat homelessness.
