Vintage Ercol Oval ‘Windsor’ Model 384 Drop Leaf Dining Table
This handsome, original Ercol table is quite a catch these days and the iconic Windsor design has stood the test of time – this piece dates from the 1970s and is in near immaculate condition. The beautiful, honey-toned ‘blonde’ elm top sits on four long, beech splayed legs. Windsor tables are characterised by their softly tapered edges that gently slope off. It’s an expertly balanced and harmonious piece of midcentury design. The drop leaves are extended with a simple pull mechanism on the underside. With the leaves down, it’s a compact table that will tuck neatly away. When required, it extends to a generous oval (it tricks the eye as it looks round but in fact it’s oval) that can comfortably accommodate four-six diners. And of course, you can just use one leaf up too. Ercol furniture is synonymous with good design, quality materials and craftsmanship and is built for longevity.
Description
These are original, vintage table is ‘sold as seen’. It is in very good – excellent, used condition. It has been cleaned and a neutral, natural beeswax polish applied but otherwise the original finish has been left alone as it’s in such outstanding order. It carries some very light scuffs and marks as you might expect with a vintage piece but nothing to call out. It is solid and sturdy with no wobbles or signs of repair. The drop leaves extend by lifting and pulling out the arms underneath. All mechanisms and hinges are in very good, working order. The original dark blue Ercol sticker is affixed to the underside of the table and it dates from the 1970s. Do browse our photos for a good sense of its patination and condition.
