Renzo Frau
Lorenzo Frau, known as ‘Renzo’, was born in Cagliari in 1881 and met an early death in 1926. Having moved to Great Britain for work, he was able to discover the Chesterfield model armchairs and immediately imagined its potential, successfully starting to import it into Italy. He left an extensive archive of projects that would allow his wife to coherently pursue Poltrona Frau production in the years to come.
