Another walnut chair of this model in the Untermyer Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York is illustrated in J. Gloag and Y. Hackenbroch, English Furniture with Some Furniture of Other Countries in the Irwin Untermyer Collection, London, 1958, pl. 55. A further Chinese padouk example made for export was sold anonymously, Christie's, London, 23 April 1998, lot 214. The tradition of copying English prototypes can be be illustrated in another direct parallel from the same period (see E. Lennox-Boyd, ed., Masterpieces of English Furniture: The Gerstenfeld Collection, London, 1998, p. 80, figs. 58 an 59).
