The present design, adapted from a 13th century model from a house in Vezelay, and revived by British-born architect Richard Norman Shaw (1831-1912), is illustrated in C. Gere and M. Whiteway, Nineteenth Century Design from Pugin to Mackintosh, London, 1993, pl. 99. The design was first reproduced by French-born architect Viollet le Duc in his Dictionnaire de Mobilier of 1858.
