The French-fashioned, squab-cushioned bergeres are bobbin-railed in the George IV 'Elizabethan' or 'Old English' manner, as popularised by Thomas King, author of Modern Style of Cabinet Work Exemplified (1829) and Specimens of Furniture in the Elizabethan and Louis Quatorze Styles (1835). An 'easy chair' was amongst the 'bobbin' enriched furniture supplied by Gillows, and included in the 1840 inventory of Mere Hall, Cheshire. A pair of similar bergeres sold Christie's London, 19 November 2009, lot 74.
