John Pardoe was active from 1717 until March 1748 when he announced in the Daily Advertiser that he had 'left off trade' and offered his stock for sale.Several pieces by him bearing his label are known and a bureau with his label and dated 3rd March 1743 and address 'next to Temple Barr in ye Strand' would indicate that the present lot dates to the period between 1743 and his retirement in 1748. Records show that he supplied furniture for some of the great British houses including mirrors for Erddig,Denbighshire in 1717 and several pieces for Lord Leigh of Stoneleigh Abbey,Warwickshire.Three labels by J.Pardoe showing similar hand-written stock numbers and coded price are shown in C.Gilbert,Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture 1700-1840, Leeds,1996,p.363.
