L.Ercolani – Utility Chair
The philosophy behind the beloved Utility Chair is simple — enduring, timeless design, constructed using humble, straightforward materials and hand-built to last for generations. With these values in mind, Lucian Ercolani launched the first Utility Chair in 1945, marking a new and defining chapter in British design.
Meticulously crafted and honed to minimalistic perfection, the Utility Chair boasts a classic Windsor backrest with six, finely-carved spindles protruding from its curved base. A smooth, steam-bent ash bow encases the spindle structure, creating an elegant, sweeping arc that unites the chair’s design elements in a simple, harmonious curve.
Forged in solid ash timber, the Utility Chair is available in nine protective finishes, including a warm natural finish and the new modern tones series by Christian Møller Andersen.
