Poltrona
Frau.
A culture of leather, handcraft and quiet refinement developed over more than a century.
Craft made contemporary.
Poltrona Frau is built on the intelligence of skilled hands. Its furniture combines disciplined design, deeply developed comfort and a century of leather knowledge—expressed through precise tailoring rather than decoration.
Tradition kept
in motion.
Renzo Frau founded the company in Turin in 1912. Its refined proportions and unmistakable workmanship quickly found an audience among Italy’s cultural and social elite; by the 1920s, the company had become a supplier to the Italian Royal Family.
Poltrona Frau’s history moves easily between private interiors and public life. It furnished great ocean liners, created enduring domestic icons such as Vanity Fair, and later developed dedicated expertise for theatres, hotels, institutional spaces, automobiles, yachts and aviation.
The continuity is material as much as stylistic. Leather selection, cutting, stitching and finishing remain central, while collaborations with architects and designers continually renew what that craft can become.
