Born in Italy and raised in London, he became one of the most important figures in British furniture design, particularly in the post-war period. His work combined traditional cabinetmaking and Windsor chair construction with modern manufacturing techniques, creating furniture that was practical, beautifully made and distinctly modern without abandoning craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eErcol became especially known for its use of steam bent timber, slender turned elements and solid elm seats. The company’s furniture was widely exhibited and sold throughout Britain from the 1950s onwards, and many of its designs have since become classics of British mid century furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Model 365 is a particularly elegant example of Ercol’s Windsor range. It has a tall, gently curved back formed from a continuous bentwood hoop, with fine vertical spindles and a broad, shaped elm seat. The legs and stretchers are made from beech, while the seat is elm, a combination Ercol used extensively, taking advantage of the strength of beech and the distinctive grain and character of elm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThese four chairs have a warm, naturally aged finish and retain the lightness and simplicity that make Ercol furniture so enduring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/b\u003e Lucian Ercolani\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/b\u003e Ercol\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e Windsor 365\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e England\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/b\u003e Mid-century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/b\u003e Elm and beech\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/b\u003e Set of four\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasures :\u003c\/strong\u003e 49cm wide x 55cm deep x 92cm high\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eVintage condition with signs of age and use consistent with their history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"a fold of chairs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58781187309952,"sku":null,"price":800.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/3093\/files\/ChatGPTImageAug26_2026at01_07_00PM.png?v=1787746396","url":"https:\/\/www.afoldofchairs.com\/products\/set-of-4-windsor-dining-chairs","provider":"a fold of chairs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
