Whilst there is no conclusive evidence to link these chairs to an Irish origin, the unusual ribbon-carved angle-brackets relate to the carving at the top of the legs on a mahogany side table of c.1740 illustrated in The Knight of Glin & J. Peill, Irish Furniture, New Haven and London, 2007, p. 231, no. 109. The unusual arm-support design is related to a leg pattern seen on a tea-table with Ronald Phillips Ltd., 2005 and illustrated ibid., p. 238, no. 141.
