Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Lovely midcentury modern Ercol Two-seater sofa - £350 - 
Needs a bit of TLC, a slight sanding and varnish or waxing
Does not come with a webbing as per the standard Ercol (it was bought like this) but would be possible to remove the bottom and replace with webbing or keep as it is (it hasn't been a problem for us, quite the opposite as it feels more sturdy with kids jumping on it!)
One of the feet was repaired (see photos)
Dimensions: 130cm wide and 69cm deep. Very nice and compact.
Comes with blue velvet seat cushion (can be replaced)
Please see photos as they form part of the descrition.
Any questions please ask!

Has this been partially sanded or stripped? In this condition, comparing with similar Ercol items on eBay, I'd politely suggest your asking price is a bit high. If it had proper Ercol slats, and was in better cosmetic condition, you'd probably get more. That repair of one of the feet is really crude, and I'd suggest if that were done properly - using dowel(s) and wood glue, you'd get a better price. The Ercol piece that goes for a lot on eBay is the studio couch/daybed, but the chairs and sofas are not so collectable. I'm sitting on a very similar Ercol sofa as I type this. Anyway, just some thoughts about what, with a bit of work, would be a lovely piece of furniture.

As I said previously, I am opened to offers. The two seater in fully refurbished condition will go for about £700-800.

Replacing webbing on Ercol furniture....easily done and available with good info on different model requirements here or here.

As you say a little TLC and Bob's your uncle...you'll have a lovely piece.
