John Gee is listed in directories from 1799 at 49 Wardour Street, Soho, he is frequently referred to as Chairmaker & Turner to His Majesty These chairs are typical of Gee's work and a large number of fashionable cane-seated beech chairs with painted finishes have been recorded. He often stamped his work although the mark varies, in this case he used the device of a small J within a large letter G. The stamp on the backrail is that of the journeyman chairmaker.
