The present cabinet and cupboard executed in the neo-gothic style can be attributed to the the Hague firm of J.A. Schick & Co. on the basis of the roundels with recessed trefoil motifs. Similar roundels can be seen on a cupboard in the Noordeinde Palace, in the Hague. The founder of the firm: Johannes Abraham Schick was born on the 30th of May 1750 in Neukirchen in Nassau-Dillenburg. He died in The Hague in 1829. Although nothing is known about Schicks work before 1817, it is likely that he assisted Eeltjes in his commision to supply chairs to Louis Napoleon. The fact that in 1817 he received a royal comission to furnish the Noordeinde Palace is also an indication of the measure of sucsess that he must have had in the period before 1817. From 1817 onwards Schick becomes one of the most important suppliers of furniture to the court. In 1823 Johannes George probably takes over the firm from his father, in this year he moved the location of the shop and workshops to the Noordeinde, near the royal palace. At this point the firm had expanded its activities from purely chair making, to encompass all sorts of furniture making as well as selling soft furnishings and wall papers from their shop; calling themselves 'Behangers, Fabrikeurs en Leveranciers van Ameublementen, enz'. Cf. J.G. Berkhout, De firma Schick, makers van neogotiosche meubelen, Antiek, 1974, No. 4, pp. 394-402.
