NEW ARRIVAL-Ercol Model 203 Jubilee Armchair in Original Fabric, c.1960s
The chair that defined a generation of British living rooms — and still does.
Few pieces of furniture are as instantly recognisable, as deeply loved, or as enduringly desirable as the Ercol Jubilee armchair. Designed by Lucian Ercolani in the mid-1950s and produced at Ercol’s legendary High Wycombe workshops, the Model 203 is one of the defining achievements of British mid-century design — a chair that manages to be simultaneously sculptural and supremely comfortable.
The frame, crafted in solid steam-bent beech with a warm honey patina deepened by decades of use, is a masterclass in organic form: the sweeping horseshoe back, the elegantly angled arms with their characteristic scroll terminals, and the bold X-frame front legs combine to create a silhouette that is as beautiful from across the room as it is to sit in. Every curve has a purpose; every joint speaks of genuine craftsmanship.
The loose seat and back cushions — upholstered in a period abstract fabric of cream, olive, and warm brown — add a note of authentic mid-century character. Reupholster in a fabric of your choice for a fresh look, or keep the original for a piece of living history.
Collect it, live with it, love it. The Ercol Jubilee is not just a chair — it is a piece of British design heritage.
