Vintage 1970s Ercol Drinks Hostess Trolley in Original Dark Finish

As you would expect from Ercol, this is a nicely designed and well-made, functional piece of solid wood furniture in its original, dark factory finish. Drinks / hostess trollies rather fell out of fashion but they were a staple of the midcentury home, essential for socialising to move drinks and nibbles around with ease. They’re now enjoying something of a renaissance as they make good, low level space dividers in open plan spaces, helping to zone areas. Plus they serve well as freestanding, movable shelves for books, plants and more. The current trend though is to use them as mobile cocktail ‘cabinets’ with plenty of shelf space for bottles, glasses and mixing.

Description

This is an original, vintage piece that is ‘sold as seen’. It is in good, used condition. We have cleaned the piece and applied a natural beeswax polish but otherwise left the original factory finish alone so there are some superficial knocks, grazes and marks which can be seen across our photos. It’s well-made in solid beech and elm, Ercol’s favoured woods, and the dark finish is ‘Old Colonial’. The Ercol blue label can be found underneath and it dates from the 1970s. The castors move freely and are original. Do browse our photos for an accurate sense of its condition. If you’ve any questions or would like to view this item, do get in touch.
