There are a lot of leather sofas out there. Unfortunately, a lot of them are just plain ugly. Finding a beautiful, modern option can be a daunting task and I speak from experience. As soon as we finished the renovation of our living room, I knew I needed the perfect caramel leather sofa for the space. And once I get an idea in my head, it’s hard to get out, trust me. And so, my hunt for the best modern leather sofa commenced.
Luckily, my search led me to a really amazing company that seemed to have JUST what I was looking for. Article is a Canadian (!!!) online shop that has some incredible mid-century modern, contemporary & Scandinavian pieces that are easily shoppable and shipped straight from the manufacturers (for a low flat fee too!!). Their belief is you should be able to spend less and live more! Cutting out the showrooms and all the salespeople does just that. Article doesn’t have the traditional mark ups you’d find in stores, which makes someone like me really happy.
My leather sofa search was at first discouraging because every option I loved was over my budget. Enter the Sven ‘Charme Tan’ sofa!! It seemed to tick off all the boxes and so I did a happy dance and clicked buy now! As soon as it arrived, I started getting a lot of feedback and people asking “where is that sofa from!?!” And so, I wanted to dedicate an entire post to why this is the best modern leather sofa.
Here’s why I love it and you will too:
- It was priced really well considering it’s full Italian leather
- It has unique colour variations – so each sofa is a bit different. Plus, the tan colour is exactly what I was looking for.
- The shape and size are perfect – this is definitely a modern option that IS NOT ugly…it’s beautiful and works perfectly in my living room design. Also, you can remove the bolsters to change up the look.
- One thing we were concerned about was comfort. But, both my husband (who is tough to please in the comfort department) and I agreed it was incredibly comfortable!! Nap approved!
- It has a single bench seat rather than 2 or 3 cushions, which is nice when you think about kids and dogs and cushion crevices. Plus it stays put!
- It came SO fast! I love that I didn’t need to wait 6-8 weeks for it to come in, and the delivery was so smooth.
All in all, I can’t say enough great things about this leather sofa. You will definitely be seeing it flood my IG feed and grace the pages of this blog for months to come. What do you think?!?

such a good sofa!! Now looking at their site I want the pink couch!!!!
I am so behind the times here, but I’ve been doing some research lately into buying this couch. It looks like you brought it upstairs, and I was just wondering if it fit up them easily? My stairs are in a standard single family new home, and it was tricky to get a queen bed frame up them, so I’m nervous about the couch. I tried measuring but it’s so hard to measure something that can be angled and played with to fit places. Let me know your take! Thanks so much!
I unfortunately didn’t bring it up any stairs…just through the front door. And truthfully, when they delivered it, they did all the heavy lifting into the house. It comes in a big box! Looking at it, it doesn’t seem super huge to go up a staircase but I would never say buy it without knowing for sure. So sorry I can’t be more helpful! But they do have a good return policy too if it doesn’t go well for you!
