A sculptural study in proportion and tactility, the Archibald bed by Poltrona Frau distils Jean-Marie Massaud’s design language into a horizontal plane of quiet power. The padded headboard rises with the same flared elegance as the original armchair, its surface marked by free-folding Pelle Frau® leather—stitched by hand to create a tailored interplay of line and depth.

Cylindrical feet in black-painted wood or leather-wrapped ash elevate the structure with architectural poise. The reverse is finished in jacquard fabric for discreet placement against a wall. A designer leather bed that pairs couture upholstery with spatial harmony, Archibald brings composed drama to refined interiors.
