A REGENCY ORMOLU AND INDIAN ROSEWOOD CIRCULAR OCCASIONAL TABLE
THE PROPERTY OF A LADY OF TITLE The following group includes Regency furniture from Hornby Castle, Yorkshire, which may have entered the collection of George Osborne, 6th Duke of Leeds (d. 1838) after the former family seat of Kiveton was demolished in 1811, from which time Hornby became the principal seat. Although Hornby has undergone a substantial number of structural and internal alterations, it is unknown who the 6th Duke engaged as architect in the early 19th century although it has been suggested that this may have been Ignatius Bonomi (d. 1870), the architect son of the Italian-born architect, Joseph Bonomi (d. 1808) who had worked with Robert and James Adam.

The occasional table is closely modelled on a guéridon made by Bernard Molitor, ébéniste from the Ancien Régime to the Bourbon Restoration, which is distinguished by the scrolled monopodiae supports (an example illustrated U. Leben, Molitor, London and New York, 1992, p. 74, fig. 62).
