Curved leather sofas have become the signature of the contemporary cocktail lounge because they gather a group around one table without the formality of a booth. They are also the pieces that most often fail when bought from residential suppliers: long spans sag, seams split at the curve, and thin leather creases within months.
How we build them
- Curved frames are laminated or multi-piece hardwood with internal braces every 16-20 in (40-50 cm), so long spans do not sag
- Seat foam is cut to the curve in one piece where possible, so there is no dip where cushions meet
- Leather panels are pattern-matched across the curve and double-stitched at stress seams
- Recessed plinths or turned wood feet keep the base visually light and make cleaning under the sofa easy

Each sofa is offered in protected leather, semi-aniline leather, contract vinyl or velvet. Ask for the colour lot to match your booths and chairs so the room reads as one design.
