Quilting and tufting both add texture to a sofa, but they create very different moods. Tufting is the deep buttoned look of a Chesterfield. Quilting uses stitched lines or panels for a softer, modern feel. Here is how they compare in daily life. All products are 30% off with free delivery across India.

Quilted vs tufted sofa at a glance


  • Look: tufted is classic and formal; quilted is modern and relaxed.

  • Cleaning: quilt lines are shallow; tufted buttons trap dust in the dips.

  • Feel: tufted backs feel firm and structured; quilted backs feel softer.

  • On our site: our Chesterfield designs show button tufting; the Quilted Boucle design is quilted.


When a tufted sofa makes sense


Choose button tufting for a formal drawing room, a heritage look, or a statement sofa in green or blue. Our Chesterfield vs modern sofa guide goes deeper on the style.

When a quilted sofa makes sense


Choose quilting for a modern apartment, a softer lounge feel, or if you want less dusting. Note that our quilted design lists suede fabric in its specifications, despite boucle in its name.


Cleaning tufts and quilting


  • Use a soft brush attachment around buttons every week.

  • Blot spills from the outside in, so stains don't spread along stitch lines.

  • Rotate seat cushions so wear stays even.

Frequently asked questions


  • What is the difference between a quilted and a tufted sofa? A quilted sofa has stitched lines or panels sewn through the padding. A tufted sofa has buttons or deep pinched points pulled into the padding, as on a Chesterfield.

  • Which is easier to clean? A quilted surface is usually easier, because it has shallow stitch lines. Deep button tufts collect dust and need a vacuum brush.

  • Are your Chesterfield sofas tufted? Chesterfield is the classic button-tufted style, and the photos on each of our Chesterfield pages show the tufting. Each page lists 280 gsm suede fabric and 40 density Sleepwell foam on a sagwan solid wood structure.

  • What fabric does your quilted sofa use? The Quilted Boucle Fabric 3 Seater Sofa has boucle in its name, but its specifications list 280 gsm suede fabric. We build to the specification.

  • Which style suits a modern home? Quilted styles feel modern and relaxed. Button tufting feels classic and formal, though it also suits modern rooms in bold colours.
