拍品专文

The chairs, with their hermed and antique-fluted legs and patteraed arms relate to a suite of seat furniture at Osterley Park (see M. Tomlin, Catalogue of Adam Period Furniture, London, 1982, no. D/3 pp.34 and 35), while a related chair with palm-flowered rails dating from the 1770s is now in the Victoria and Albert Museum (see R. Edwards, English Chairs, London, 1951, fig. 94). The fluted tapering legs, with bull's-eye paterae collars, relate closely to seat furniture attributed to the preeminent London firm of William Ince (1737-1834) and John Mayhew (1736-1811), and is often incorporated into designs for hall chairs (see C. Cator & H. Roberts, Industry and Ingenuity: The Partnership of William Ince and John Mayhew, London, 2023, pp. 351 & 355, figs. 287 & 300). The chairs are labelled by Messrs. Wright & Mansfield, who played a leading role in the revival of the Adam style from the 1860s to the 1880s and are likely to extended the suite.
