The bookcase displays flame-figured and hollow-cornered mahogany panels typical of Gillows’ Regency furniture. Though slightly simplified, it is derived from the design for a bookcase which was delivered by Gillows for the Library at Tatton Park, Cheshire, in 1811, in particular to one of the free-standing bookcases on the north wall ( see Nicholas Goodison and John Hardy, `Gillows at Tatton Park’, Furniture History Society Journal, vol. VI, 1970, pls 6A, 6B and 7A, and pl. 7B showing the Gillows design). The closely related bookcase corresponding to the same design was supplied to Glynllifon, Wales in 1823. Another similar was sold anonymously Christie’s, London, 22 May 2014, lot 1149 (£37,500 including premium).
