The pier-glass pattern, designed in George II picturesque fashion with mirrored frame of rustic water-dripped and shrub-entwined pilasters, derives from Thomas Johnsons, Collection of Designs, 1758 (pl. 4; left side; also reissued in One Hundred and Fifty New Designs, 1761, pl. 22). Its squirrel can be related to those on mirrors, after another Johnson design, at Corsham Court, Wiltshire (see R. Edwards and M Jourdain, Georgian Cabinet-Makers, London, 1955 fig. 75)
