A similar stool at Syon House with X-frame supports combined with saddle seat with scrolled-ends is illustrated R. Edwards, The Dictionary of English Furniture, London, 1954, rev. ed., vol. III, p. 182, fig. 69. The scroll-ended seat can also be related to the set of library stools provided by Chippendale for Christ Church, Oxford, in 1764 (see: C. Gilbert, Thomas Chippendale, London, 1978, vol. II, fig. 386)
