From surviving bills in the family archive it is known that Sir Henry Hope Edwardes Bt. patronised Gillow & Co., 176 Oxford St., from as early as 1867 so it is most likely that he would have acquired these splendid chairs directly from the firm. The present model is after a design published by Thomas Chippendale for 'Ribband Back Chairs' which features in 'The Gentleman & Cabinet-Makers Director' (third edition), London, 1762, pl. xv.
