Its design is similar to that of the Goldsmith Chair, but the Stick Back Chair has an overall more linear form, giving it a simpler impression. It is the lightest of all Ercol chairs, known for their light weight, making it even easier to handle and use. As it is a model that is no longer in production, it is becoming less and less common on the secondhand market. Prices of vintage items in particular have skyrocketed, making it a rare and popular chair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eERCOL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \nErcol is a long-established furniture manufacturer in the UK. It is a rare brand that continues to receive high support for the same model, both as new furniture and as antiques. Ercol Furniture was founded in High Wycombe in 1920 by Italian-born furniture designer Lucien Arcolani, who immigrated to the UK in the early 20th century. One of the key points of Ercol's success was inventing a method of drying elm wood, which was considered unsuitable for furniture at the time because it was difficult to dry and would warp. The collection combines traditional manufacturing methods, such as the Windsor chair, with modern design, and is light and simple with a casual design. The stacking child chair, designed in 1957, was widely used in facilities such as elementary schools and quickly became a best-selling brand. In recent years, Margaret Howell (British fashion designer) exhibited vintage Ercol stacking child chairs in her London shop, and the Ercol chairs were very well received. This led to Ercol starting to manufacture reproductions of the product in 2002. This reproduction was later sold at Margaret Howell's shop and quickly became popular. Items with the yellow and gold color, commonly known as the Gold Label, from Ercol's heyday in the 1960s and 1970s have long been traded at a premium, but in recent years, including vintage Blue Label items from after that, the prices have soared to nearly double what they were in the past in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLucian Ercolani\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n Born in Italy in 1888, he became a British citizen in 1923 and founded Ercol. While manufacturing traditional British Windsor-style furniture, the founder of Ercol also broke with tradition and took on the challenge of creating new Windsor designs and timeless modern designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eElm wood ulmaceae\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \nThe species that is mainly used as wood is called Japanese elm, also known as elm wood. In addition to furniture, it is widely used for tableware, musical instruments, and more. Elms grow over a wide area in the Northern Hemisphere, growing in cold, fertile soil in Hokkaido, Japan, China, Sakhalin, Siberia, and other areas. It is highly valued for its decorative properties due to its interesting grain, and is sometimes used as a surface decorative material in place of zelkova. It is also characterized by its resistance to rot, and its somewhat heavy, hard, and tough nature, making it less likely to crack. Its yellow-white to light brown color and rough texture give it a moist, gentle, and soft impression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBeech\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \nIt is a material with white, fine grain and a property of being difficult to crack, and the surface has small spots of radial tissue. It is strong, has a lot of toughness and elasticity, so it is also ideal as a material for bending wood. The uncolored wood changes to amber color the more it is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n","brand":"camori","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44662120153400,"sku":"63564","price":29000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0728\/7272\/2744\/products\/c386669c-7136-474c-ae2a-9b159405b30f.jpg?v=1677278977","url":"https:\/\/amingcojp.xyz\/en\/products\/63564","provider":"camori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
