Gary Broom, Sales, Marketing & Design Director at Sherborne Upholstery, reveals two new launches ahead of the Autumn Furniture Show.

Upholstered furniture manufacturer Sherborne Upholstery is preparing to showcase its latest developments at the Autumn Furniture Show, which takes place from 8-9 October 2025.

A popular product within its collection is Leyburn, which has performed consistently well during the year, with the range experiencing continuous development. Leyburn, which incorporates the head adjust feature on all powered recliners and risers, has been one of Sherborne’s best launches when it debuted during the January Furniture Show earlier this year and now it’s adding leather into the mix.

“This comfortable and well-priced Recliner/Suite comes with a wide Lounger 2-Seater option to complement the Standard range, with Riser Recliners also available in four sizes,” Gary commented. “The subtle, curved stylish looks go hand-in-hand with the exceptional comfort given by the soft pillow arms and supportive seating, we always knew this was going to be a winner.

“Leyburn has been one of our best launches to date and now we’re introducing ‘Leyburn in Leather’, which is now available. We’re already seeing encouraging momentum with these sales which is very positive moving forwards into the busier period. To complement this, we have added three new leathers into the Queensbury Range. We’re sure these new colours, indigo, fossil and olive will add a modern feel to our already extensive leather offering.”

However, Sherborne’s biggest reveal comes in the form of its update of the Cartmel Riser Recliner. “We still have two styles of riser recliners, the knuckle version and the scroll arm version,” Gary added. “These are available in four sizes of riser, Petite, Small, Standard and Royale, so you’re sure to find the perfect fit.

“We have widened the chaise area and the seating profile has been altered to give an improved all-round sit. The back has been redesigned and we have added the head adjust feature to sit alongside the lumbar feature.

“Furthermore, the knuckles have been extended and re-shaped to feel more comfortable, while the lateral cushions profile has been shaped to give extra support and a comfortable snug feel.”

Gary said that several products have been added to the range to give customers more choice. These include a fixed chair, recliner (powered option and Head Adjust available) and a 2-seat fixed settee, all in the popular standard size, as well as adding a fireside chair in both styles, in three seat heights, with three leg options.

“We’re looking forward to the Minerva show in October with confidence and excited to use the event as another opportunity to showcase our fantastic products and recent updates,” Gary said.
