I'm going to be cleaning my old house
and decorating the new.

I just bought a red leather sofa and brown chairs. What are those old leather and wood sofas called? It's those. The armchairs have scrolly bits and a drawer at the bottom. I'm going for eclectic and eccentric

Uncomfortable?
The in laws have those ercol sofas and they are seriously back breaking, plus you can't curl up on them.

These have solid wood arms on them, so it's impossible to stretch out on them.
Yours may be different.

I'll be honest
I can't remember exactly - they were in a charity furniture shop, but I think the arm rests were leather but with scrolly wood bits on the front

That sounds more comfortable than ercol, then.
The arms on ercol stuff are almost a separate attachment, so there's a big gap between the sofa cushion and the arm.
