Ercol Swan Highback Dining Chairs
£195.00 – £1,400.00
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 oil making them a smooth velvety to the touch.
Dimensions: 960mm high / 420mm to top of seat pad.
These chairs and similar chairs are painted to order within 2-4 weeks, please contact me with any special requests or if you would like your own chairs painted in this style.

Black ‘Croc’ Storage Sideboard
This is an excellent example of my 'Croc' range of furniture using an original vintage 'Strongbow Furniture' sideboard.
The external frame has been painted black and the top, sides and door front decoupaged with a textured black/grey mock croc paper. The piece has then been sealed with multiple coats of a resin based varnish to protect and maintain its good looks.
As a final flourish, the original brass hardware has been fully restored and adds a bit of glitz to the sideboard's subtle and elegant good looks.
Strongbow Furniture has been creating high-quality furniture for over 140 years and uses the finest timbers, veneers and polishes. Each piece is made by experienced cabinet-makers who combine traditional skills and modern production technology.
This sideboard has three doors and two pull out drawers behind the central door. The interior has been cleaned and buffed to show the beautiful original wood. Coming up to just above waist height, this sideboard has an incredible amount of storage which is ideal for modern living.
