That a suite of seat-furniture survives at Hatfield House, Hertfordshire of almost identical form as the present lot, suggests that the current chair is likely to have been made in the same workshop. The Hatfield suite, comprising a pair of armchairs and six side chairs all in giltwood, was supplied to James Cecil, 5th Earl of Salisbury (1691-1728) by Thomas How, of Jarman Street, Westminster in 1711 (A. Bowett, English Furniture 1660-1714, Woodbridge, 2002, p. 255-256, pls. 8:47 & 8:48). How supplied furnishings to Hatfield, in 1710-11 including a State bed, to the value of £830.
