BH | Studio Gramercy Curved 2-Piece Sectional

Gramercy takes its name from Gramercy Park, the private, key-only garden square laid out in Manhattan in the 1830s, and the settled residential streets around it. The curved sofa found its city moment in the middle of the 20th century, when apartment living rooms favoured low, rounded shapes that could stand free and still look tailored from every side.

Two curved sections, one closing each end, meet in the middle and clip together underneath into a single sofa for four, under a low back that sweeps round from one side to the other. Each seat is built on pocket springs, wrapped individually so they move on their own, with layers of foam above for a deep, comfortable sit. Layered hardwood frames and curved solid hardwood bases carry the sections, each rated to hold 880 lbs. The upholstery is slub weave, cloth with a gently uneven texture from yarn spun thick and thin. It arrives fully assembled, and the two halves are easy to move through a doorway one at a time.

In Mink, Moss or Oyster, the slub weave wears well in a family room where the dog is allowed up. Put it in a den lined with bookshelves, with a leather pouf, a basket of throws and a lamp with a pleated shade, and it becomes the place where everyone ends up after supper. This listing is for both sections.
