Descriptif du lot

The present coat of arms is that of Joseph Todd Esq. (c.1767-1835). A very successful haberdasher, he retired to his house Twickenham Park as a millionaire in 1822. He was granted this coat-of-arms on 12 December 1823, and this service was likely ordered in celebration of this grant.
