As the product-symbol of the company, the Vanity Fair armchair embodies all those values of timeless elegance, quality materials and handicraft skill that have made the Poltrona Frau brand famous over the years. Officially named “Model 904” but known as Vanity Fair since 1984, this chair has become one of the universally recognised icons of Italian design.
The design which began production in 1930 seems to have been re-worked by the Poltrona Frau Style & Design Centre starting from the drawings Renzo Frau left his wife Savina.To celebrate the 90th anniversary of the Vanity Fair armchair, the company asked the designer Roberto Lazzeroni to revisit it, adapting its proportions to offer an even more comfortable and welcoming chair.
The Vanity Fair XC pouf completes the collection. Its curved and organic lines are inspired by the armchair and reinterpret the typical hallmarks of the Art Deco style to make the object a timeless classic. It can also come in a version with practical internal storage compartment.
