Lady Ludlow was the widow of Sir Julius Wernher (d. 1912) of Bath House, Piccadilly, and Luton Hoo, Bedfordshire. She inherited a significant portion of his collections and this clothes press could have come from either house. A number of pieces of furniture with this label remained at Luton Hoo and were included in a sale at Sotheby's, London, 24-25 May 1995.
