拍品專文

George Simson (or Simpson as his name was also spelled) was recorded at 19 St. Paul's Churchyard in London from 1787 until 1840. He made furniture in the elegant neoclassical style of the 1780s and 1790s and subscribed to Thomas Sheraton's Drawing Book. Perhaps the most famous pieces associated with his workshop are the remarkable group of secretaire cabinets incorporating clocks and organs, made for Thomas Weeks's Museum of mechanical curiosities in the Haymarket.

This pembroke table can be attributed to George Simson on the basis of the distinctive characteristics it shares with an example bearing his trade label: 'George Simson/ Upholder... / No. 19/ South Side of St. Paul's Churchyard,/ London'. The closely related pembroke table was recently sold from The Collection of Ann and Gordon Getty: Wheatland; Christie's, New York, 19 October 2023, lot 71 ($17,640).
