Few forms embody the legacy of L. Ercolani as consummately as that of the Butterfly Chair — the iconic everyday dining chair designed by Lucian Ercolani. Launched in 1956, the subtle curves and sculptural refinement of the Butterfly Chair helped transform the chair into a beloved mid-century classic.

A purposeful study in simplicity, the clean form of the Butterfly Chair reflects Lucian Ercolani’s signature design ethos and heartfelt commitment to traditional craftsmanship. Gently rounded to hug the body’s natural contours, the steam-bent curves of the Butterfly Chair invites users to sit and enjoy a moment of comfort and repose.

The Butterfly Chair features the traditional Windsor wedge and tenon joinery, a technique in which the chair’s legs are extended through the seat and secured with a wedge. It is also available with an upholstered seat for additional comfort.
