Poltrona Frau Vanity Fair Armchair - SC 188 Viridiana Designed by Poltrona Frau R.& D.

Vanity Fair is an armchair by Renzo Frau for Poltrona Frau. The padding uses both hand-fashioned vegetal horsehair and rubberized horsehair while the seat cushion is filled with goose down. The springing of the seat, back, and arms is by means of biconic steel springs, tied manually and rested on jute belts.

Vanity Fair is a replica of the celebrated 904 model that was part of Poltrona Frau's catalog in 1903 and became an archetype after which modern armchairs have been patterned ever since. It is known over the world for its typical rounded shape and the rows of leather-covered nails that add the finishing touch to the seatback and arms. Today it is a cult object: own a Vanity Fair, however, is not a sign of ostentatious luxury, but of the real one, that lasts during the time.
