A refined evolution of the iconic Model 904, the Vanity Fair XC armchair by Poltrona Frau was reimagined by Roberto Lazzeroni to celebrate 90 years of Italian design. Its enveloping silhouette and gently updated proportions offer a contemporary take on a timeless classic, enhancing comfort without compromising sculptural impact.

Built on a solid beech frame with hand-shaped padding in vegetable and rubberised horsehair, it features biconical steel springs tied by hand and supported by jute belts. Finished with leather-covered metal studs and upholstered in Pelle Frau® leather or fabric, Vanity Fair XC reflects true artisanal mastery.
