The reed-capped columnar leg and reeded seat-rail can be found in George Smith's celebrated Cabinet-Maker and Upholster's Guide, 1826. A related suite of George IV ormolu-mounted rosewood furniture at Brodsworth Hall, Yorkshire, designed in the French-Grecian manner and bears the label of George I Seddon (d. 1864) and his brother George II Seddon (d. 1857), whose enormous cabinet-making establishment in Aldersgate Street, London, helped furnish George IV's Windsor Castle.
