拍品专文

The parlour chairs, with their scalloped and Gothic-fretted splats, correspond to a pattern discussed by J. Kirk in American Furniture and the British Tradition to 1830, New York, 1982, fig. 932. Another four chairs of this pattern, but with different legs, were in the possession of Elson of London in 1934 (P. Brown, The Noel Terry Collection: Fairfax House, York, 1987, no. 56).
While these chairs have now been covered in green horsehair, they are identical to the chairs from Hole Park, Cranbrook, Kent, sold in The Legend of Dick Turpin Part 1 at Christie's, London, 9 March 2006, although the Hole Park examples were catalogued as having 'EMN' stamped on one seat rail and 'HV?' on another, which do not appear on these chairs.
