The basic pattern for these 'Roman' bergeres was published in J.C. Loudon's Encyclopaedia of Cottage Farm and Villa Architecture and Furniture, 1833 (no. 1924) and is likely to have been one of the 'easy chair' designs provided by the Bedford Row cabinet-maker William Dalziel (d. 1839).
This drawing-room chair, with its golden palm enrichments and poetic laurel wreaths, bears the label of the Berners Street upholsterer and cabinet-maker D. Dellier, who is recorded at this address in the 1835 London Directory.
