拍品专文

The press displays the quality and constructional features associated with the known work of Thomas Chippendale, specifically the laminated blocks supporting the bracket feet and the use of a red-coloured wash on the carcase timbers. It has the sober feel of furniture supplied by Chippendale in commissions for Aske Hall, Yorkshire, in 1764-5, Mersham, Kent, in 1767, and for Paxton House, Berwickshire, around 1775 (C. Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, London, 1978, vol. II, pp. 60 - 61, figs. 94 and 95, and p. 135, figs. 242 and 243).
