Channel your inner Hollywood starlet on this curvaceous Italian-inspired piece. As Chris says, “This sofa is all about the shapely lines and perfect proportions — and it looks like a vintage find. You can almost picture Grace Kelly or Maria Callas lounging here, wearing a Chanel suit and sipping champagne.”

(Speaking of champagne, the elegant champagne-gold legs add just enough shine to feel luscious without going over-the-top glam.)

Unexpected design elements and 100% pure top grain cow leather combine to create this distinctly CB2 sofa. Plus, as Evan says, “Drops reminds me of a nice glass of scotch in sofa form. You should definitely buy it.”

In the market for an upholstered accent/desk/dining chair? Go for the Japanese-inspired Kaishi and its timeless silhouette. Seriously, you’ll never get tired of it.

“What I love most about this chair is the mix of materials — the beautifully curved wooden frame pairs so elegantly with the thin vertical metal rods. It’s a work of art,” Chris says.

Heirloom pieces you pass down through generations can totally be acquired on sale. Take the Kotka Leather Sofa. “This is a steal — a very dapper 100% black leather sofa designed by our friends at GQ,” Evan notes. “The leather is extremely soft and will look even better over time as it develops a patina.”

Benches are the unsung heroes of the upholstery world; they work wonderfully in so many different situations and room settings. Chris recommends the Parisi Grey Velvet Bench: “This piece is a must-have for the foot of your bed or your entryway. It’s so understated, yet I love how the subtly ruched corners pop out.”

The Piazza collection is a forever favorite. It’s “a CB2 classic that’s simple yet refined with a cool, understated coastal Italian vibe,” according to Chris. “Perfect for lounging, this sofa mixes with with so many different styles you can’t go wrong with where you put it. You will love the down-wrapped cushions!”

Speaking of Piazza, it’s also available in custom fabrics — included for the first time in the CB2 Upholstery Sale. “This is one of our best-selling custom pieces for a number of reasons,” Evan explains. “It’s made in the U.S.A., the performance fabric is durable and easy to clean, and it’s super comfortable. I really like the look of the low-profile frame and solid white oak legs.”

Midcentury modern style isn’t going anywhere, and as Evan notes, “The Troubadour Chair is a great option for injecting some midcentury modern vibes into your home. It’s also a bargain, especially at the promo price. You might as well buy two of them.”
