John Kendell & Co., based in Leeds, was established in 1816 and this form of label is thought to have been adopted by them in the 1830s. The labels often included a serial number and the name of the craftsmen employed on the production of each piece. A highly successful firm, they provided pieces for the Earl of Harewood at Harewood House between 1818-22. The firm was taken over by Marsh & Jones in 1863 (see The Dictionary of English Furniture Makers 1660-1840, p. 505).
