Auditorium origin
Poltrona Frau says Carlo Mollino originally created this seat for the RAI auditorium and that the current version was redesigned for modern audiences. It preserves the curving, minimal character that the company associates with the 1970s.
Structure and movement
The frame combines steel, MDF and solid beech. Fire-resistant polyurethane foam forms the padding and woven elastic belts provide suspension. A counterweighted mechanism returns the seat quietly to its rest position.
Installation and options
Moulded tubular metal feet anchor the chair to the floor. Black paint is standard; chrome or brass galvanic finishes and a backrest panel are available on request.

Carlo Mollino's line
The manufacturer describes the chair as preserving the minimalist, curving elegance typical of the 1970s. Its steel, MDF and solid-beech frame combines fire-resistant padding and elastic-belt suspension, while a backrest panel remains available as an option.
