The firm of Willson was recorded in Great Queen Street from 1799 until 1854. The variety of furniture that bears their stamp, both in type and age, suggests that they were good quality furniture brokers rather than actual manufacturers (see: The Dictionary of English Furniture Makers, Leeds, 1986, p. 985)
