Poltrona Frau

The names come from music. Just as a note finds its meaning within a chord, the Nota chairs and Accordo table are designed to belong together: the dining table takes centre stage, with the chairs arranged around it.

Corner of the Accordo table with the glass top and the leather-covered edge, Poltrona Frau — Accordo: the leather edge around the glass.

For Poltrona Frau, renowned worldwide for its expertise in leather craftsmanship, Bruno Gecchelin chose to use leather as more than a covering. It became a decorative element in its own right, on equal terms with glass and metal.

In the Nota chair, leather enhances the black metal frame, which has a triangular cross-section. It is set into a recessed channel along one of the three exposed faces.

Base of the round Accordo table, with metal uprights and floor ring, Poltrona Frau — Accordo table, round version.

The Accordo table, available in rectangular and round versions, has a clear or smoked-glass top and a black metal frame. Leather in a choice of colours runs around the full perimeter of the top, highlighting the frame’s profile and bringing warmth to the design.
