Halsey Ricardo designed 8 Addison Road, London, or Debenham House or Peacock House as it is known, for Sir Ernest Debenham in 1905. The Italianate exterior is clad in Royal Doulton and Burmantofts tiles, whilst the Arts and Crafts interior features tiles by William De Morgan. Ricardo designed the library furnishings, including a desk decorated with the same motifs as the present chairs, presumably ensuite. The location of the desk is currently unknown but the design drawing for the inlaid panels is held in RIBA (ref. RIBA3999).
