A pair of jardinières of closely related form featured amongst the purchases of that celebrated Regency collector George Byng (d.1845) for Wrotham Park. Acquired at auction at Oxenhams in 1836, they differed only in the frog-form of the feet and in a slightly less finely chased ciselure. These latter jardinières were sold Christie's London, 9 June 2005, lot 38 (£74,400).
