Do you remember these chairs from school?
Well they are worth a lot of money nowadays, so if you ever see one in a junkshop, buy it!! A set of 4 will always go for a few hundred pounds on Ebay.
They are made by a company called "Ercol" named after their founder Lucian Ercolani, a young Italian man who started the business in High Wycombe in 1920.
Ercol comes in pale and dark wood, but the pale wooden furniture is becoming very trendy, and you will increasingly see it featuring in interiors magazines.


A couple of my customers have asked me to reupholster these pale wood Ercol chairs, and I am starting to see why people like them. They have a clean, scandinavian style and are supremely comfortable!






Below is a picture of the 3 seater, which is highly sought after. Originally it had 3 cushions along the back, but people prefer to be able to see the wood detail, and so do as the lady below has and just use small scatter cushions to make the back comfortable, and super stylish.
