Poltrona Frau Unveils ‘The Five Seasons' 2025 Collection
Italian luxury furniture brand Poltrona Frau unveiled its 2025 collection titled 'The Five Seasons', blending the essence of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter with a unique Fifth Season — a metaphorical space for personal expression, harmony, and sensory connection. Celebrating six decades of Gio Ponti's iconic Dezza armchair, the brand releases a limited edition of 60 pieces, each upholstered with exclusive digital prints derived from Ponti's original illustration. Key introductions include the Blisscape sofa by Ludovica Serafini & Roberto Palomba, offering adaptable comfort and the brand's first foray into bedroom systems with the DressCove Night System, a sophisticated modular wardrobe line. New collaborations mark the season: a Fidelio Multimedia Cabinet for Leica's Cine 1 laser TV, and a Fornasetti capsule reinterpreting the 1919 armchair and Isidoro trunk, adorned with whimsical illustrations. The Pelle Frau® Soulful leather collection expands sustainable luxury through its Impact Less tanning, complemented by a refreshed 2025 Textile Collection that introduces new fabric families and modern tones. In seating, updates include modular extensions to the Parka sofa, the GranTorino line, and new versions of the Archibald and Downtown Lounge armchairs. Dining evolves with additions like Mesa Ellipse, new belt-inspired chairs, and an elegant Duo Bed series co-designed with Ceccotti Collezioni. Lifestyle design is amplified through the Beautilities collection: lamps by digital artist Six N. Five, Sebastian Herkner's Nymph floor lamp, travel accessories by Carlotta Fortuna, and games crafted in leather and wood in collaboration with Giobagnara. CEO Nicola Coropulis affirms the brand's vision: 'The Fifth Season is about deeper human connection through nature, design, and innovation.' With a holistic approach, Poltrona Frau's 2025 collection stands as a masterclass in sustainable craftsmanship, comfort, and artistry.

Poltrona Frau Marks 60 Years of Dezza with Rare Reissue
Poltrona Frau pays tribute to one of its most iconic creations with the release of a limited-edition reissue of the Dezza armchair, originally designed by the legendary Gio Ponti in 1965. The commemorative collection, limited to just 60 individually numbered and certified pieces, celebrates six decades of design excellence and marks a pivotal moment in the brand's legacy. The Dezza armchair was the first product to define Poltrona Frau's new identity post its move to Tolentino in 1962. Known for its geometric minimalism blended with subtle curves, the armchair remains a hallmark of timeless modernist design. This exclusive 60th anniversary edition is upholstered in Pelle Frau® ColorSphere Impact Less leather, reflecting the brand's sustainability ethos introduced in 2022. Available in sophisticated Panna and Iris shades, the palette recalls the serene coastal interiors of the Hotel Parco dei Principi in Sorrento—also designed by Ponti. The standout element of this re-edition is a unique pattern based on a previously unpublished illustration by Gio Ponti, featuring 26 stylized hands, each named and imbued with whimsical identity—from 'the gloved hand' to 'the fortune teller's hand'. This motif symbolizes the craftsmanship and 'intelligence of the hands' central to Poltrona Frau's values. Each of the 60 pieces includes a metal tag with its edition number and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, reinforcing its status as a collectible design object. Poltrona Frau CEO Nicola Coropulis said, 'This limited edition not only honors Gio Ponti's creative vision but also enriches its cultural value through material innovation and a deeper design narrative.' Available online in select European markets from February 13 to April 1, the Dezza limited edition will then be made available through selected Poltrona Frau stores worldwide. The reissue not only revives a design masterpiece—it also bridges past and future, celebrating a legacy of craftsmanship with a sustainable, contemporary spirit.
