This model of desk is based on a design by Thomas Sheraton in his Drawing Book, London, 1802, pl.58. It seems to have been used by Gillows of Lancaster from 1840 to circa 1860. Holland and Sons supplied a similar desk in 1868 for ¨27 102 0d (see: R.W. Symonds and B.B. Whineray, Victorian furniture, London, 1962, p.196, fig. 221)
