Messrs. Howard and Sons were one of the most successful English cabinet-making firms in the Victorian period. Their premises were based firstly in Lemon Street circa 1820, then at Little Alice Street by 1835. They upgraded again, moving to sought-after premises at 22 & 36 Berners Street in the fashionable West End quarter by 1854, where the firm remained for the duration of the century.
Howard and Sons exhibited at the 1851 Great Exhibition and notable commissions included contributing to the furnishing of Sudbury, Derbyshire and Elton Hall, Huntingdonshire.
