PAIR OF REGENCY BAMBOO AND CANED
PAIR OF REGENCY BAMBOO AND CANED TUB CHAIRS34 1/2 x 21 1/4 x 20 in., height of seat 18 1/2 in.
Note: From Christie's London catalog note: These chair frames, with arched supports, correspond by the architect William Chambers in 'Designs of Chinese Building,' 1757, pl. XIII, as being suitable for Chinese garden buildings. However, their bergere form and fan-pattern tablets relate to chair patterns published in the 1790s by A. Hepplewhite & Co. and Thomas Sheraton. The same pattern chairs, with more decorative seat-rails, appear to have formed part of the exotic furnishings introduced to the chinoiserie Royal Pavillion, Brighton, created by the architect Henry Holland (d. 1806) about 1801 for George, prince of Wales, later King George IV. (see C. Musgrave, 'Regency Furniture, London, 1961, pl. 24a). Related Cantonese chairs and their accompanying vase stands, which may have been purchased by John Crace (d. 1819) from an East India Company trader about 1802 for the Marine Pavillion, Brighton featured in the Saloon and Red and Blue Drawings Rooms, in John Nash's 'Views of the Royal Pavillion at Brighton, 1826.
Sold Christie's London, July 16, 1992, Lot 123.
