The present chair belongs to a very small group of furniture constructed in China and decorated in the Japanese manner. Other chairs belonging to this group include a pair from the collection of William Cornelius Van Horne, bequeathed to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; and a pair in the Los Angeles County Art Museum gifted by Lynda and Stewart Resnick (M.2013.53.1-.2) and published and exhibited by Nicholas Grindley, ‘November 1999’, cat. No. 10. Another chair from this group, formerly in the collection of Robert H. Ellsworth, was sold at Christie's New York, 17-18 March, 2016, lot 1322. Of the chairs in this group, the present chair appears to be the only one constructed with a gilt-lacquer-decorated softwood seat, which appears to be original to its construction, and is not fitted with the more commonly seen soft mat seat.
