Ercol is a British furniture manufacturer which was established in the 1920s by Italian furniture maker Lucian Ercolani. During the Second World War, the company worked for the government largely making tent pegs. The rise of Ercol furniture began in post-war Britain, when the shortage of raw materials in the UK meant that all furniture must be strong and of high quality. In 1944, the company was commissioned to make 100,000 well-made chairs at low cost; thus, Ercol furniture was introduced into many homes around Britain.
