Pair of 50s/60s Ercol Windsor Chairs Model No 400

A rare opportunity to own a pair of original Ercol 400 Windsor dining chairs, crafted in solid elm and beech at the famed High Wycombe factory. These chairs date from 1958 to the early 1960s, before the design was updated to feature five spindles instead of four—making these early models highly sought after.

With their elegant curved back, tapered legs, and timeless craftsmanship, these chairs epitomize mid-century British design. They seamlessly fit into both traditional and modern interiors, whether around a dining table or as a stylish desk chair.

Condition & History:
• Early 4-spindle version (rarer than later 5-spindle models)
• One-owner chairs, originally purchased in the 1950s/60s
• Well-used with a beautiful patina, structurally sound and built to last.

We often have pairs, odd chairs, and complementing Ercol tables in stock—message us for availability and bundle discounts!

Please bear in mind that all our vintage and retro items have had a life before you purchase them (sometimes quite a long one!) therefore they will show signs of wear and use, these may include knocks, dents and scratches, bumps and scuffs which are commensurate with age and previous use. We never sell items that we wouldn’t be happy to have in our own homes and provide images detailing any significant damage or unusual wear. Please carefully read the details and examine the images prior to purchase. All our items have been thoroughly cleaned and de-greased, re-oiled and polished (where necessary) and are fit for purpose. If you’re unsure, or would like some more information, please contact us, we’re always happy to help.
