"Ordering from The Fields was such a great experience- very easy and fast communication and our sofa looks so lovely and is very comfy."
Pete, Manchester. Jan 25.
"We met Emily at Womad Jul24 and were bowled over by her passion for restoring mid century furniture. We fell in love with the Ercol chairs but were mid build of an extension and not ready to choose furniture. Roll forward a couple of months and we're back on the Fields website looking for ideas. We saw the Ercol 355 couch / day bed in the Indigo Shibori and knew it would be perfect, we just needed chairs to go with it. Emily was great helping us look at styles, sizing and colours, always quick to email with photos and advice. We decided on the Ercol 335 chairs in a co-ordinating colour and, completely hooked also ordered 2 of the 749 chairs for the lounge. Everything was delivered in time for Christmas and has been a massive hit with all the family, including the cats. The quality and comfort of all chairs is exceptional, we are extremely pleased and would not hesitate to recommend."

“We absolutely love our new Ercol footstool. From ordering through to delivery, Emily was in touch updating us on her progress with getting it ready for us. It’s such a unique piece and the beautiful green wool cover is very special due to the texture and irregular patterns and shades of green. It perfectly complements the Ercol coffee table we already had. Thanks ever so much for a great addition to our new home!”

"We met Emily and the team at the 2024 End of the Road Festival. We weren't looking for a chair - but fell in love with The Fields ones. Our only issue was where to put it in our home - so had to measure up and choose from the fabulous colours before ordering. The service, delivery and communication have been great. The cushions are really well made, very neatly sewn and plump. The chair is so comfy - especially for the early morning newspaper read and for Charlie, our cat!"
Jane - Suffolk Dec 24.

"We have now had our sofa for a few weeks and we are absolutely delighted with it. It was some thing of a 'step of faith' as we hadn't seen or sat on the model we ordered but we were in good hand and the result has exceeded our expectations. So, if you would like to put a review on your website, here it is:
When we attended the Purbeck Folk Festival this summer, we certainly didn't expect to be ordering a refurbished Ercol sofa! However, a few weeks later we were the proud owners of this lovely 2 seater. The restoration work is beautifully done, the dyed woolen cushion covers are exactly the colour requested, as is the firmness of the cushions. We love it!
Emily was excellent in her communication and personal service in addition to being an excellent furniture restorer."
Alan & Mary - Wareham November '24.
"Life goals... I've just fulfilled another! When we used to visit my godmother's house, in the 1950s and 1960s, I would eagerly read her Good Housekeeping magazine, even as a small child, poring over the fashions, the hairstyles and the furnishings. I particularly loved Ercol furniture, and would search the magazine each month for the adverts, and for any home styling articles that featured it.
Well, now I own my very own piece of vintage Ercol. When I was at the End of the Road festival a few weeks ago, I met a woman who sources and restores the chairs and sofas. We sat on the chairs - I tried them all for size and comfort while we chatted about the processes and colour choices - and I ordered one. And here it is!!"

"I fell in love with this chair instantly when I saw it at WOMAD festival. It took me by surprise as I wasn’t really looking to buy anything, but I am so happy I did. I now have such a unique piece which means so much to me. Once it arrived home it has become an essential part of my space and it’s also so comfortable! I like it for quiet moments and reading on weekend mornings."
Alex, Oxford. Oct 24.

"We love our deckchair. It's incredibly comfortable and we love the design. The fabric is very hard-wearing and durable."
Ellen, London. Aug 24.
"We are absolutely delighted with our Ercol sofa. It fits perfectly in our hallway and everyone wants to sit on it as it is so comfortable! Emily was brilliant to deal with and it was restored to a beautiful condition and delivered as promised."
Silvia, Kent. July 24.
"We love these reconditioned and upholstered Ercol chairs from Emily at the Fields. We found her at her stand at a Festival so plenty of time to try them out. We were able to choose covers of any colour. They were dyed to order and are super comfortable and washable. Everyone wants to sit in these chairs in the cosy corner of the kitchen and put their feet up but Woody is always there first"
Jo, London. July 24.
"Nothing makes me happier than sitting in my glorious deckchairs! They are a ray of sunshine (even when the weather is less than kind) and I whip them out of the shed whenever there’s a moment. They are sturdy, comfortable, and VERY TRENDY! Just love those retro 70s vibes…."
Mel, Ealing. July 24.
"The cover is great and I look forward to many comfortable evenings with my feet up. The cat will be happy too!"
Simon, Carlisle. July 24.
"We saw an Ercol chair with a cushion, but needed two. The Fields were able to source a matching chair for us and provided a matching cushion. We are very pleased with the chairs."
Molly, Chester. July 24.
"I am really pleased with my order from The Fields. Would definitely use again."
Poppy, London. July 24.
"Sitting in our chair for the first time in the vintage market, I knew straight away we had to have it - it is SO comfy, like being enveloped in a cloud! Emily and the team at Fields were so helpful, helping us with measurements so that we could choose the exact chair we wanted. They talked us through all the colour options, and made us the most beautiful yellow wool cushions for both the chair and footrest. We love them, they liven up our sitting room, bringing comfort and colour."
Milla, Bethnal Green. July 24.
