The Archibald family in the bedroom

The product page opens the bed's story with the Archibald family, which it calls a tremendous success for Poltrona Frau, and says Jean-Marie Massaud combined form and substance through a comfortable, enveloping seat. The bed brings that family to the night area for the first time.

Warmth in bold lines

According to the page, the bed reinterprets the spirit of the collection with refined elegance and conveys a sense of intimacy and warmth despite its bold lines. The sheet adds that it is also offered in a version with a spacious storage compartment.
