A grand rocking version of Ercol’s design classic, the Chairmakers Chair – this later Model 7912 edition reinterprets the original 1950s design with the same exemplary craftsmanship and timeless appeal.

A beautiful example of British furniture making, this vintage Ercol Chairmakers Rocking Chair perfectly captures the brand’s enduring combination of comfort, quality and design integrity.

Crafted from solid English elm and beech, it features Ercol’s signature steam-bent bow back with elegant spindle supports, sculpted arms and a generously curved seat for lasting comfort. The flowing form and natural grain of the wood highlight the exceptional craftsmanship that has made Ercol an enduring favourite among collectors and design lovers alike.

The gently curved rockers create a smooth, soothing motion, making it as functional as it is beautiful – ideal for a reading corner, nursery, or as a statement piece in any modern or traditional interior.

Founded in 1920 by Italian-born designer Lucian Ercolani, Ercol is a beloved British furniture maker celebrated for its craftsmanship, innovation and timeless design. Based in Buckinghamshire, the brand rose to prominence in the mid-20th century with its Windsor range, pioneering steam-bending techniques and producing pieces that combined style with utility.

Ercol’s furniture remains highly collectible today, admired for its organic forms, durable materials and appeal across both traditional and contemporary interiors. Each vintage Ercol piece is a testament to thoughtful design and exceptional British manufacturing.

This Model 7912 example is presented in excellent vintage condition with a warm golden finish, ready to be enjoyed for decades to come.

Ercol

In the early years, Ercolani focused on producing chairs, using traditional woodworking techniques to create elegant and functional designs. However, as the company grew, he began to expand the range of furniture that they produced, incorporating new materials and styles to create a wider range of products.

During the 1950s and 1960s, Ercol became known for its innovative designs and commitment to quality craftsmanship. The company began to produce a range of new furniture styles, including the iconic Windsor chair, which featured a distinctive curved backrest and spindle legs.

Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Ercol continued to expand its product range, incorporating new materials such as plastic and metal into its designs. The company also began to focus on more contemporary styles, reflecting the changing tastes and trends of the time.

In recent years, Ercol has continued to evolve, combining its heritage of traditional craftsmanship with modern design techniques and sustainable materials. Today, Ercol is recognised as one of the leading furniture brands in the UK, with a reputation for producing high-quality, stylish furniture that is built to last.
