The Ercol Butterfly Chair is a true design classic and one of the most recognisable pieces in the Ercol collection. Originally designed by Lucian Ercolani in 1956, the chair showcases the craftsmanship, innovation and timeless styling that have defined Ercol furniture for generations.
Characterised by its distinctive steam-bent ash frame and elegant winged silhouette, the Butterfly Chair combines striking visual appeal with exceptional comfort. The sculpted timber frame supports a generously upholstered seat and back cushion, creating a relaxing occasional chair that works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, reading corners and open-plan spaces.
Available in a choice of Ercol wood finishes and a wide selection of fabrics and leathers, the Butterfly Chair can be tailored to complement both contemporary and traditional interiors. Whether chosen as a statement piece or paired with other Ercol furniture, it remains one of the most celebrated examples of British furniture design.
