Ercol Sofa

My sister and her boyfriend are beginning to search for their first house, pretty scary especially when he is a design nut and she...well if she cover the house in pictures of Audrey Hepburn it wouldn't go a miss! They have procured an Ercol Sofa, my sister isn't so sure, he is completely loving it! So this post is aimed at her to made her see this brilliant design classic in a new light. 


In 1920, Lucian Ercolai set up his own little furniture factory, specialising in steam bending wood. This is what makes the sofa so unique, a little bit of history sitting right in your living room. Wood can be stained in different colours, and the cushions you can customise yourself. So my dearest sister the moral of the story is...if you don't want it I do!!
