A suite of almost identical seat-furniture surviving at Hatfield House, Hertfordshire 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.
