Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ercol is the name of a British furniture manufacturer. The firm dates back to 1920, when it was established in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, as Furniture Industries by Lucian Ercolani. In 1944, Ercol was contracted by the government Board of Trade to produce 100,000 low-cost Windsor chairs chairs with a bentwood frame and an arched back supporting delicate spindles. For the order to be a commercial success, Ercol perfected the steam-bending of wood in large quantities. The wood selected was English elm a wood previously thought impossible to bend because it distorted. Ercol s innovation meant the chair could be assembled from fourteen pre-formed components, and mechanisation meant that a chair could be made every twenty seconds. In 1946, Ercol exhibited its bentwood furniture at the Britain Can Make It exhibition, held at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. In 1947, the first production-line Windsor chair, and other pieces from the range of Windsor furniture, went on sale.
