For sale very rare Ercol ‘Chairmakers’ Swan Back rocking chair (model 949) designed by Lucian Ercolani as a celebration of ‘Windsor’ chair maker in High Wycombe during the late 60’s.

RRP: £985 each (current production)

Ercol furniture is synonymous with good design, quality materials and craftsmanship and is built for longevity. It is now back in fashion (keenly collected and highly regarded). This is a real eye catching piece of vintage, retro furniture which is no longer in production and sale.

This piece is of the usual high quality one expects from this manufacturer. The saddle seat is of solid ash and the steam bent frame is of beech. Arched back consists spindles and a pierced centre splat which features the extremely popular swan design. The swan motif is an homage to the town of High Wycombe, popularly known as the furniture capital of Britain. The chair is finished in an Ercol ‘Golden Dawn’ and matt protective lacquer.

Size of the chair (approximately):
Height: 41” (105cm)
Width: 25” (63cm)
Depth: 30” (77cm)
Seat Height: 16” (41cm)

The rocking chair is in excellent vintage (original) condition with some light marks commensurate with age and use. It is free of any damage or repairs. The rocking chair is sturdy with no loose joints or spindles and no separation to the ash seat. It has been cleaned and waxed.

Please see pictures for a better idea of the condition. I have tried to show colours as accurately as possible but please remember colours do appear differently on some monitors.
