This Windsor Lattice Chair is made by ERCOL, a long-established British furniture manufacturer founded in 1920.
This is a rare item among Ercol chairs. There are various designs with slightly different seat and leg shapes, and this chair is "an H-shaped leg crosspiece and a normal round seat." The name "latticed chair" comes from the fact that the shape of the supple spindles resembles a garden lattice fence. This chair is also known as a crossback chair, and has a very beautiful design. Eight spokes are inserted into the seat, but each one has a different angle and depth, making it a very difficult task and showing the skilled and vivid handiwork. The Windsor bow technique, which bends beech wood into a bow shape, is alive in the top board, and the seat made of elm wood is gently carved, making this a chair that embodies the careful craftsmanship of the craftsman everywhere.
A rare Windsor dressing chest that is also popular in the UK. A functional and convenient item that combines a dresser and a chest. The screws that support the mirror are wood screws, and you can see the high attention to detail. The first tier of the chest has a glass shelf that can be used as an extension of the top. A wonderful item with impeccable design and functionality.
Born in Italy in 1888, he became a British citizen in 1923 and founded Ercol. While manufacturing traditional British Windsor-style furniture, the founder of Ercol also broke with tradition and took on the challenge of creating new Windsor designs and timeless modern designs.
