This mirror recalls the oeuvre of Thomas Chippendale the Younger (d.1822) at Harewood House, and Burton Constable, Yorkshire. The antique vase and profusion of elaborate scrolls relate to engravings dated 1779 (I. Hall, 'The Engravings of Thomas Chippendale, Jnr, 1779', Furniture History Society, 1975, plates 123-127).

The pair to this mirror was sold from the collection of H. J. Joel Esq, 15 Grosvenor Square, W.1., Christies, London, 17 April 1980, lot 55 (£11,000 including premium).
