First designed by Ercol founder Lucian Ercolani in the 1950s, this simple mid-century chair encapsulates the elegant style and craft that has made the brand a British furniture institution. Lovingly made by hand to capture that same passion and quality of the original design, to this day each Windsor Chair is made using the highest quality hardwoods within Ercol’s British workshops.

Born 1888 in Italy, Lucian Ercolani moved to London with his family in the 1890s before studying design and furniture making. Having worked within the design teams for what would later become Parker Knoll and G-Plan, in 1920 Ercolani founded Ercol and began producing the company's characteristic blend of contemporary design and traditional British craft.
