The ladder-back design of these chairs relates to a set of six walnut side chairs, originally with rush-filled seats, supplied in circa 1745 for Newport Church, Essex, by Giles Grendey (d. 1780), the St John's Square, Clerkenwell cabinet-maker (C. Gilbert, The Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture, Leeds, 1996, p. 242, fig. 436).
