ERCOL FEATURED ON INSIDE THE FACTORY

Recently ercol welcomed the film crew from 'Inside the Factory' to their factory and showroom in Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. The TV crew filmed the team making their iconic 1877 Windsor chair from start to finish. From the iconic steam-bent rail to the characteristic turned spindles, the ercol factory combines the latest technology with time-honoured craftsmanship to create beautiful, timeless furniture.

The Windsor range was launched at The Furniture Exhibition at Earl's Court in 1950 and has been in continuous production ever since. Created by ercol's founder, Lucian Ercolani, the Windsor Chair has undergone subtle changes over the years, but today it still retains the essential appearance and construction techniques of Lucian's original. If you'd like to learn more about this timeless and instantly recognisable chair, you can read the story on the ercol website.
