What wood is used to make Ercols tables and chairs?
Ercol tables and chairs were, and are still, made from high-quality timbers that are durable and stylish. Elm, ash, and beech were favoured rather than the teak-fuelled furniture of Danish counterparts. With elm and beech, the twisted grains allowed aesthetically pleasing patternation and hues to develop naturally within the timber. This natural beauty was harnessed with a simple clear wax finish and heat-resistant polish coating.
Ercol pioneered the simple knack of rounding the edges of a table to maximise surface area while creating a sculptured look. The mid-century saw an explosion of functional design. Ercol embraced this with a range of drop-leaf dining tables as well as stackable dining chairs to save space. In today’s more bijou modern homes, these design classics are becoming highly sought-after.

So, why is Ercol called Ercol?
Ercol has been a household name in the furniture design world for over a hundred years. Named after Lucian Ercolini, its founder, Ercol began life in High Wycombe with a focus on honest furniture with integrity. It remains a family-owned business to this day with Ercolini’s grandson and great-grandson continuing to champion the founder’s ethos and vision.
