A beautifully elegant Ercol classic
The Ercol Fleur de Lys Rocking Chair (Model 316) remains one of Ercol’s most graceful designs. Its elegant spindle back, sculpted solid elm seat and gently curved rockers create a chair that is both visually striking and wonderfully comfortable.
The Fleur de Lys range introduced a more decorative style within Ercol’s collections, while maintaining the exceptional quality, practicality and craftsmanship for which the company is renowned.
The beauty of natural timber
One of the most rewarding parts of this restoration was revealing the natural beauty of the timber once again. The solid elm seat displays a unique grain pattern, complemented by the warm tones of the beech frame.
Careful refinishing and polishing have enhanced the richness of the wood while respecting the chair’s original character, allowing the craftsmanship and beautiful flowing lines of the design to shine.
A chair designed for comfort
Rocking chairs have always been associated with relaxation, and the Ercol Fleur de Lys is no exception. Its supportive spindle back, comfortable seat and smooth rocking motion make it ideal for quiet moments with a book, a cup of tea or simply unwinding at the end of the day.
Whether placed beside a fireplace, in a conservatory or as part of a cosy reading corner, this restored Ercol rocking chair brings warmth and character to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
