The sofa’s comforting square and rectangular cushions are delicately encased within a beautiful wooden frame, defined by tapered spindle side panels, arched armrests and a bold backrest formed by a large board of ash. The striking structure embodies a timeless design that can act as the main focal point in a contemporary living space, creating a relaxing area to unwind, socialise and rest.
A beautiful representation of traditional craftsmanship and the authentic appeal of wood, the L.Ercolani Studio Couch is an inviting showpiece.
Lucian R Ercolani, or the "Old Man" as he is affectionately known in the company, founded Ercol in 1920. Born in Italy in 1888, Lucian's family moved to London in the 1890s. There he went to night school at the Shoreditch Technical Institute where he studied drawing, design and the theory and construction of furniture.
Between 1910 to 1920, The Old Man worked in the design teams for what would later become Parker Knoll and G-Plan, before founding Ercol in 1920.
