Description
For sale very rare, fully renovated Ercol Windsor Chest of Three Drawers (Model 412) in Ercol Light Finish.
This iconic piece was designed by Lucian Ercolani and manufactured in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire and is now back in fashion (keenly collected and highly regarded). Ercol furniture is synonymous with good design, quality materials and craftsmanship and is built for longevity. This is a real eye catching handcrafted piece of vintage / retro furniture which is no longer in production.
The external framework of the chest of three drawers is superbly crafted and made from solid English elm with the exception of the nicely grained elm veneered back panels. The dovetailed corners at the top and bottom of each section emphasize how well constructed this piece is. All edges are rounded over. The three equal drawers are dovetail constructed with mahogany veneered bottoms, each drawer front is made from a single plank of elm wood. The drawers are fitted with hugely stylish oval inset handles which prove to be such an appealing feature of the Ercol Windsor range and the drawers open very easily. The base is fitted with original shepherds casters, and this gives the unit great mobility.
Size of the chest of drawers (approximately):
Height: 26" (66cm)
Width: 36" (91.5cm)
Depth: 19" (48cm)
The chest of drawers has been professionally restored to its original condition and is being sold in as new condition. It has been striped of all old polish, any dents or scratches removed, re-stained and re-polished (three coats of extra durable, water and heat resistant varnish) to a pristine condition. It is free of any damage, splits or wear to joints. There are signs of use on original Ercol shepherds casters.
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.
Item is located in E7 9JX. I can deliver it in person to any London address for an extra ?45. Delivery to London vicinity area is also possible at a small cost.
