Black Ercol Swan Highback Dining Chairs
£175.00 – £620.00
This gorgeous vintage set of classic Ercol swan dining chairs feature a highback hoop back.
Originally they had a flaking dark brown traditional finish but Glasshouse Girl has bought them bang up to date by stripping the seat pad back to bare wood and refinishing the back/base in black acrylic paint.
Some of the original stain has been left on the seat pad giving it a stylish dark wood grain finish that perfectly compliments the black.
The chairs have been finished with several thin coats of traditional linseed oil making them a smooth velvety to the touch.
Dimensions: 640mm wide x 680mm deep x 820mm high. 420mm to top of seat pad.

Navy Blue Sideboard
This was a client commission but similar can be sourced for you. I hold a number of sideboards in stock and can source something to meet your requirements. You will receive a number of options to choose from before we proceed with the makeover.
The sideboard needs to be washed, prepared and any repairs made before we start. It will then be undercoated in a suitable undercoat and spray painted with multiple coats of a navy blue acrylic paint. I will finish in an ultra matte, satin or gloss topcoat to make sure that it stands up to everyday usage.
The handles on the sideboard pictured here have been replaced with these lovely antique gold bee handles - you can also provide your own handles and other handle choices can sourced upon request.
The interior of this sideboard has not been touched (apart from cleaning) but this could also be painted and refinished for an additional fee. How about a pop of lime or fuschia pink? Challenge me to come up with something stunning!
