| Ercol for John Lewis, Dining Table £399, Chairs £179 each |
I love mid-century furniture. It seems its very on trend at the moment. Ercol have designed a range of furniture exclusively for John Lewis, the Pilgrim range. I love the dining room table and chairs, in oak.
Despite its very Scandinavian design Ercol is in fact a British company.
"In 1920 a young designer called Lucian Ercolani started his own business in High Wycombe, the chairmaking capital of England.
Here he perfected the technique of steam-bending wood in large quantities to form the famous Windsor Bow, and discovered how to 'tame' elm; a beautifully grained hardwood other furniture makers considered impossible to work with. " -source Ercol

I have got a very similar coffee table to that pictured above, it is unmarked so i don't know if it is or isn't Ercol. I got it for £2 at the car boot fair last summer. If it is Ercol it will need some serious restoration as its covered in claw scratches from the dog (as is our 1950s Nathan Side board, Bad Puppy!) Who wants to see a post about my house and my furniture?
I love the photo of the love seat with the drapes and all the pillows. It's so wonderfully cheerful--I'd like to move into that house, please. :-)
ReplyDeletei love ercol - my gran had it all. i got one chair when she died - my sister got the dining table... i must save up. the white is so gorgeous
ReplyDelete"I love mid-century furniture. It seems its very on trend at the moment." - I agree. I also want to have one of that "Love Seat" posted above. I think it's perfect for my patio.
