The Ercol 2643 Romana: Where Modern Ergonomics Meets Mid-Century Soul

Finding a dining chair that balances architectural beauty with long-term sitting comfort is a challenge. The Ercol 2643 Romana Dining Chair is the definitive answer. Designed as the centrepiece of the Romana dining collection, this chair is more than just a seat—it’s a showcase of British steam-bending heritage and contemporary minimalist aesthetics.

Why the 2643 Model Stands Out

While many modern chairs feel rigid, the Romana 2643 features sculpted, organic curves. The hallmark of this model is the tapered ladder-back. Each of the broad horizontal slats is subtly contoured to follow the natural curve of the human spine, offering a surprisingly supportive "upright" sit that is perfect for long dinner parties.

Materials & "Dead Matt" Longevity

Constructed from prime-grade solid pale oak, the chair is treated with Ercol's signature dead matt lacquer.

• The Benefit: It looks and feels like raw, natural wood, but provides a high-performance barrier against spillages and UV fading.
• The Detail: You can feel the natural grain under your fingertips—a tactile reminder of the authentic timber and expert joinery used in every piece.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the Ercol 2643 Romana chair delivered assembled?
Yes. Unlike mass-market furniture, the Ercol 2643 is delivered fully assembled by our specialist team. This ensures the structural integrity of the timber joints is perfect from the moment it enters your home.

What is the difference between the 2643 and the 2644 model?
The 2643 model features the iconic timber ladder-back, showcasing the natural oak grain. The 2644 model has a fully upholstered backrest for a softer, more cushioned profile. Both chairs share identical frames and seat dimensions.

Can I order the Romana 2643 in leather?
Absolutely. While fabric is popular, we offer the 2643 in various premium leathers. Leather is an excellent choice for high-traffic dining rooms as it is easy to wipe clean and develops a beautiful patina over time.

How do I care for the oak finish?
The dead matt lacquer is highly durable. To maintain the wood, simply wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. We recommend avoiding silicone-based polishes or harsh chemicals to protect the natural look of the oak.

What is the lead time for delivery?
As these chairs are hand-finished to your specific fabric choice, the lead time is typically around 8-10 weeks. Brentham provides Free UK Delivery and will keep you updated throughout the crafting process.
