Design. Featuring clean lines and a retro shape, the Mimosa sofa brings a sleek style update to any living area. Perfect for cosying up in comfort, it benefits from foam and fibre filling, plump cushioning and luxurious velvet upholstery. Blending well with both modern and traditional décors, the sofa’s slim legs and raised design hints at mid-century influence, whilst creating a sense of space. A choice of iconic cushion prints adds depth and character, channelling a fun, fresh feel. Sure to impress guests and become a favourite piece of furniture, the Mimosa is as stunning as it is sumptuous. Choose brass-tipped feet for added vintage appeal.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa for its clean lines and versatile style, making it a great focal point in both contemporary and more eclectic interiors. The plain velvet in a rich, medium hue like this is not only luxurious but also easy to accessorise - think layered cushions or throws to add texture and colour. It works particularly well in living rooms with a mix of bold and muted tones, giving a sophisticated yet inviting vibe. Practical tips include pairing it with minimalist furniture to let the fabric and colour stand out, and adding a statement rug underneath to anchor the space. Its smart design and comfortable silhouette make it a reliable choice for both everyday living and entertaining.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
