The bergeres with their palm-flowered Grecian 'cippus' arms, relate to a 'Library Fauteuil' pattern in George Smith's, Collection of Designs for Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, 1808, pl. 48. They also relate to a 'library chair' pattern in the Grecian manner in R. Ackermann's, Repository of Arts, London, 1810 (P.
