Cette paire de tables peintes portant des étiquettes aux armes de la famille et une inscription « HAM D » étaient dans la collection des comtes de Dysart à Ham House, Richmond, Surrey, où ils apparaissent sur une photographie de la « North Drawing Room » daté de 1904, mais aussi dans une aquarelle de 1886 (P. Thornton, M. Tomlin «L'ameublement et la décoration de Ham House », Furniture History Society, vol XVI 1980, figs. 214, 207; Mme Roundell, Ham House: son histoire et ses trésors artistiques, impression privée, 1904, salle 32). Une liste additionnelle aux inventaires Ham House de 1844 et 1884 mentionne « une paire d’élégants supports en bois avec des personnages dans la « North Drawing Room », il pourrait s’agir des présentes tables. Les tables ont été probablement acquises par Lionel Tollemache, 5e comte de Dysart (mort en 1799), et bien que Ham House sous sa garde n’ait pas connu de changements significatifs, on compte de magnifiques meubles anglais tous datés vers 1780, y compris une commode Transition en marqueterie, désormais conservée dans Queen’s Bedchamber, ainsi qu’un ensemble de chaises en bois d’if, conservées dans la White closet de la duchesse. Un ensemble de cinq sièges peints et dorés, au dossier ovale, ont rejoint la collection (ibid., figs. 185-188).
