Poltrona Frau is an Italian furniture company founded in Turin in 1912 by Renzo Frau. The company started out as a small workshop that specialized in the production of upholstered furniture. In the early 1920s, Poltrona Frau began to collaborate with some of the leading designers of the day, including Gio Ponti, Carlo Mollino, and Franco Albini. These collaborations helped to establish Poltrona Frau as a leading manufacturer of high-end furniture.
In the mid-century, Poltrona Frau was at the forefront of the design movement. The company produced some of the most iconic pieces of mid-century furniture, including the Superleggera chair by Gio Ponti, the 1000 armchair by Carlo Mollino, and the Dolly sofa by Franco Albini. These pieces are still highly sought-after today, and they are considered to be classics of modern design.
In the years since, Poltrona Frau has continued to produce high-quality furniture. more...
