Tripolina wooden frame with high-quality vegetable tanned leather is used to craft this Polo London cover. Same leather used to manufacture Polo boots and saddles. Natural range marks, scars, and wrinkles confirm the authenticity of the leather and enhance the natural beauty of the Polo London leather cover, the same color used when the chair was launched.
The Tripolina is a folding chair made out of wood with metal swivel joints and leather. The original chair was invented by the Englishman Joseph B. Fenby and patented in the United States in 1881. It was used in military campaigns, where it was ideal because it was designed as a camping chair of great stability in the sand and also to fold up compactly while still being comfortable.
It was manufactured by the Italian Viganò company in Tripoli, Libya. They stamped the hides with their distinctive oval company logo.
