furnishings, with the aim of creating a place
where you can feel good and settle in a sense
of harmony.
At the heart of this is an uncompro-
mising choice of quality, even in the hidden
parts. The internal structures of the furnish-
ings are solid beech wood or birch plywood,
with
many
FSC-certified
woods.
This
certification identifies products containing
wood from forests that are correctly and
responsibly managed, according to strict
environmental, social and economic stand-
ards. Quality veneers and choices that are
also attentive to the origin of the woods used
to make the furniture, which display refined
workmanship and are the result of highly
perfected woodworking. Similarly, mixti-
linear metal profiles, steel rods or die-cast
aluminium structures form the supporting
elements for many Poltrona Frau furnishings.
Skilled workmanship and the best painting
processes characterize the manufacturing
of these parts conferring a light and modern
aspect to the products.
The beauty of ancient materials such as
marble and natural stones enriches the increas-
ingly wider and more varied collection of
furnishings and furnishing accessories. Crafts-
manship of impeccable quality enhances the
diversity of veins and colours found in marble
and stone from various sources, creating dif-
ferent surface effects and enhancing the pure,
natural and always unique materials. Similarly,
the expanding offering of decorative objects
includes unprecedented combinations of glass
and leather. The result is a refined aesthetic
that enhances the transparency of the glass,
handcrafted or blown according to the ancient
tradition of the Venetian masters.
The same values that have characterised
Poltrona Frau’s leather research over its 110
years - history, cultural heritage, attention to
the origins and substance of materials, analysis
and development, genuineness and refine-
ment, craftsmanship and quality, excellence
and sensuality, harmony and style - are now
enclosed in the term Leathership®, for all
the materials used for every project, from
Residential to Custom Interiors to Interiors
in Motion.
