With their vase-carved splats surmounted by Prince of Wales plumes and painted oval panels to the seatrail, the present armchairs relate to a 1790 design by Gillows of Lancaster, a variant of their `canopy top rail' chairs which were generally carved with drapery swags, and more explicitly to a design published by Hepplewhite and Co. in The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Guide, 3rd ed., 1794, pl. 1.
