The bergeres have gold-enriched rosewood frames that are scrolled in the Grecian manner, and embellished with florid foliage together with cusped and pointed arches in the 'old English' or Gothic manner promoted in the early 19th century by cabinet-makers such as George Bullock (d.1818), one of whose 'Gothic' chair patterns was illustrated alongside a Grecian-scrolled bergere in R. Ackermann's The Repository of Arts, 1817 (P. Agius and S.Jones, Ackermann's Regency Furniture and Interiors, London, 1984, pl. 93). They are reputed to have come from Boynton Hall, Yorkshire, the Georgian home of the Strickland family, however they do not appear in the sale of the contents by Henry Spencer & Sons, 21-23 November 1950.
