AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

De Poltrona Frau Lyra armchair is an iconic design from Poltrona Frau's historic collection. The Lyra, entirely in leather, first appeared in 1934 and can be seen as an evolution of the 'Lira' armchair from 1916, which featured a leather frame with a cushion in velour fabric. The armchair is still made using the same method as in those times, making it a highly artisanal product, with leather-tipped nails adorning the back. The comfortable cushion is filled with goose down. The frame is made of beech and filled with steel springs for both the seat and the back. These springs are linked with twine and covered with vulcanized horsehair.
Extra lumbar cushion for Poltrona Frau.

First owner. Purchased at Poltrona Frau Knokke. The little chair has been used little, so it is almost in perfect condition. No damage to the leather, only a few very small pieces on the legs.

To be picked up because it's too large to send. We will help with loading.
