The ercol contract team worked with chef-owner Joe Baker and wife Charlotte, on the furniture selection for Pêtchi, a new wood-fired grill restaurant & wine bar in Jersey. The ercol All-Purpose chair and Luca dining tables were chosen in our Vintage finish. Pêtchi was looking for furniture that was both practical and stylish to suit the paired back approach with a focus on craftsmanship.

Horniman Museum
We have worked with Katy Manolescue from Collicci on a previous project for a standalone site in Chiswick and this was the first Collicci site within a museum in South East London.
The Collicci vision for the Horniman Museum and Gardens is a sensitive transformation of the café space, through a considered interior and carefully crafted food offer, to establish itself as a destination in its own right. The Butterfly Chair upholstered in Warm Grey and the frame finished in Original (OG) was chosen for this new Collicci Café. This site is the first in the Collicci collection connected to a museum and their aim was to create an elegant yet accessible café environment that acts as an extension and complement to the visitor attraction.

Morchella, Clerkenwell
We were first approached by Matthew Emmerson to discuss the new restaurant in Clerkenwell in the summer of 2023 as he had an interest in our mid-century design classics and wanted to use a local manufacturer for a new scheme he was planning.
We had a shared interest and passion for working with natural materials and put together a collaboration package over the Autumn of 2023 to select furniture and finishes that would complement the interiors of this former bank with high ceilings and large windows.
Working closely with the client we were able to form a partnership as somewhere to show L.Ercolani furniture in an atmospheric and inviting venue in Clerkenwell.
The project features our Utility Bar Stool in the Wine Bar, our Flow and Lara dining chairs in the main dining room with our Butterfly Chair in the private dining space.
