The Grecian dressing-stool with crossed trusses terminating in embossed volutes, derives from a pattern such as Thomas Hope illustrated in his Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, 1807, pl. 12, fig. 3. It relates to a 'Grecian' stool provided in 1812 to Wilbraham Egerton of Tatton Park, Cheshire (see: N. Goodison and J. Hardy 'Gillows at Tatton Park, Furniture History, 1970, p. 22). Its pattern features in Gillows' Estimate Sketch Books (no. 3568) for 30 January 1827 and cost #1.15.0.
