Timeless elegance


Poltrona Frau at I Saloni 2011, Milan, presented the skeleton of a sofa, manufactured with superb skills.
I personally have sofas from Poltrona Frau acquired in 1970, still super comfortable and with so simple lines that make them timeless.

    Nice to see the quality of construction. I so agree with you, always buy the best you can afford, food, fashion or design.

    Have a great Sunday Albarosa.

    Cheers,
