Lara Stool
Designed in 2019 by Dylan Freeth, the Lara Stool blends practicality with poised simplicity, its soft, unobtrusive form equally at home around a kitchen island or in lively hospitality settings. A gently curved backrest invites a comfortable recline, while the curled dish seat delivers ergonomic support. Smooth, lightweight and reassuringly durable, it encourages lingering over coffee or effortless perch-and-go moments, complementing modern interiors with ease.
Ercol brings a century of British craftsmanship to the piece, a heritage that began in 1920 when Lucian R Ercolani founded the brand in High Wycombe, long the heart of English furniture making. London-based designer Dylan Freeth champions people-centred production and has earned Design Guild Mark recognition for his refined work with Ercol, underscoring the stool's quiet confidence and lasting appeal.
