Bretagne
The Bretagne modular sofas by Poltrona Frau R. & D. make it
possible to create a versatile and extremely comfortable furniture system that
adapts perfectly to every type of space, giving it a warm, relaxed and elegant
feel.
The harmonious design of the Bretagne sofa is the result of a subtle yet
successful balance of different materials: a comfortable, deep seat enriched
with numerous soft cushions with removable fabric covers, and a rigorous and
minimalist shell upholstered in Pelle Frau® leather. A steel trim with gunmetal
grey finish runs along the back, creating a light decoration in the junction
between the armrest and the backrest.
The seat, backrest and armrest structure is in seasoned beech and poplar with
sides in birch plywood and MDF infill. The padding is in polyurethane foam and
polyester wadding. For the seat, springs with elastic belts and goose down and
polyester staple padding with polyurethane foam insert. The seat and backrest
cushions are padded with goose down and have a foam stabilising insert. Feet in
black lacquered beech or aluminium with burnished steel finish.
