Poltrona Frau is a furniture-maker founded in 1912 by Sardinian-born Renzo Frau in Turin, Italy, headquartered since the early 1960s in Tolentino and specializing in leather seating for interior and automotive applications. The company name combines poltrona, the Italian word for 'armchair', and Frau, the last name of its founder.
The company uses a 21-step leather tanning process (vs. industry standard ranging from 12–15 steps) where the full-grain leather is dyed through, so a surface scratch won’t reveal a lining underneath.
