The newspaper Corriere della Sera on Poltrona Frau

11/04/2014

The quality of Poltrona Frau products represents the highest standards of Made in Italy manufacturing. It is an example of how Italian tradition and craftsmanship is still carefully preserved and just as applied today as it once was.

For example, working on a Chester armchair takes years of instruction and training, so that only a few master craftsmen reach this level. It is almost a veritable certification of skill, since it is the Tolentino company's most complex model and also the one with which the Poltrona Frau trademark was registered in 1912.

At first it appears as a mere outline, but then, after placing the padding and twines for the capitonné, one has a clearer idea of the product. Starting from the bottom and working one's way upwards row by row - as dictated by the traditional English technique of the Edwardian period, the sequences of lozenge-shaped pads. It is then the time to drive the nails that pin down the back cover, and finally the highly specialized task of fitting the armrests that requires much precision and skilful workmanship.
