This form of Grecian-scrolled chair, with reed-turned legs and sphere-enriched back featured in a chair pattern published in Thomas Sheraton's The Cabinet Dictionary, London, 1803 (pl. 28). This pattern of back, with its rounded or Gothicised tablet framed by spheres, corresponds to that of a set of mahogany and ebony armchairs at Tatton Park, Cheshire, which was almost certainly supplied at this period by Gillows of London and Lancaster (illustrated in the Yellow Drawing Room in Tatton Park, Guidebook, London, 1982, p. 23).
