Ercol Utility Chair – High with Arms

+ Enlarge
Built to inspire comfort and connection, the Utility Highback Armchair is a time-honoured collector’s piece for all walks of life.
A celebrated classic, the Utility Highback Armchair encapsulates the pared-back simplicity of Lucian Ercolani’s formative work, inspired by the purity of Windsor-style furniture. Equally well-received today as it was in 1945, the welcoming form of the Utility Highback Armchair has the power to elevate the atmosphere and occasion of everyday dining rituals.
Meticulously honed to minimalistic perfection, the Utility Highback Armchair boasts a classic Windsor backrest with six, finely-carved spindles and supportive armrests. Carved into a tall arc, a steam-bent ash bow encases the spindle structure, uniting the chair’s elements in a grand, sweeping curve.
