Separable sectional arrangements:
Our normal sectional sofas cannot be separated to be used as free-standing sofas, loveseats or chairs. However, a sectional-type arrangement can be made to be separable if it's made from an armless or one-armed piece butting against a separate non-sectional sofa or loveseat (except with the Virginia model), with a few special problems, as follows:

1) If you want the front corners of the three seat cushions in the inside corner of the arrangement to align reasonably well (as opposed to having unaligned corners as shown at the right), the cushions in the corner have to be the right size: 30" wide. That is the size cushion that would normally come only with one of our 64" loveseats, or with our 94"-long three-seat sofa. So if you have a 64" or 94" sofa on one side of the L, you can have a separable sectional with the the cushions aligned at the corner.

 

 

2) Our seat cushions slope backward from the front, to provide the slight angle for the seat that most people find to be comfortable. Where the backward-sloping side of one seat comes up to the level, rounded front of a seat of a separate sofa (as shown on the right and also below right), there will be irregularity where they meet, approximately as shown.

 

 

 

 

3) In order to make the corner back cushion a good size to go on an arm of a separate sofa or loveseat, we make it a little too short to fill out the space when an armless piece goes against it, as shown on the right; the thickness of the armless wood side keeps the two pieces of furniture apart a little. The resulting gap could be concealed by draping a throw over the gap.

4) With our Florida model, the normal curvature at the bottom edges of the front rails would cause an irregular appearance if the end of one front rail comes up to nearly meet a middle section of another front rail (see below left). For $20 extra per complete order in that model, we can make all front rails in a 5-1/4"-high, straight-across construction (see below right). The California and New Jersey models automatically have the straight-across front rails.

 

 

 

The back cushion that you see on the right side of the corner in the top picture is specially shaped to go in that location, to become about even with the tops of neighboring back cushions despite its sitting on a higher, rounded part of the seat. Because of the required special work that we seldom do, we have to charge $110 for this cushion (which we call the "level high arm cushion").

 

 

 

 

As with our normal sectional sofas, you need to be concerned about leaving enough space in the corner for the legs of intended occupants who will both be sitting in the corner.
