A rare mid 18th century North Italian carrubo (carob) wood and walnut commode en arbalète Inlaid with fruitwood bands, the shaped moulded and quarter-veneered top above three long drawers on shaped bracket feet, with indistinct paper labels to the reverse, Veneto region, 140cm wide, 67cm deep, 94cm high. Provenance: Sir Roger Fray Greenwood Ormrod, PC (1911-1992) the British Lord Chief Justice of Appeal. Thence by decent and purchased by current owner. See C.Santini, Mille Mobili Veneti, L'arredo domestico in Veneto dal sec.XV al sec. XIX, fig 149 for a bureau crossbanded in carrubo. For an Italian 18th century carrubo commode of very similar form see Bonhams, Bury St. Edmunds, Summer Athenaeum sale, 13 June 2007, lot 601.
A George III mahogany kneehole bureau dressing table, attributed to Thomas Chippendale The rectangular moulded top above a flame figured frieze drawer enclosing seven divisions above a recessed kneehole with panelled door enclosing a shaped shelf, flanked by three short drawers to each side, on ogee bracket feet, with laminated blocks behind the feet and a thin red wash, 97cm wide, 57cm deep, 80cm high. Provenance: The late Hon. Mrs. B. Bruce (1921-2012) wife of the late Hon. Bernard Bruce, the only son of Victor Alexander Bruce 9th Earl of Elgin, 13th Earl of Kincardine and of Culross Abbey House by his second marriage. Considered to be one of the earliest classical buildings in Scotland Culross Abbey House is the dower house to Broomhall, the seat of the 11th Earl of Elgin. See Country Life, Culross Abbey House, Fife : The home of the Earl of Elgin and Kincardine, 16 May 1957, pp 981-983. This lot may be closely compared with a George III mahogany 'buroe' table by Thomas Chippendale supplied to Ninian Home for Paxton House, Berwickshire, at a cost of £6.12s. It recently appeared on the market at Christies, London, 14 May 2003, lot 140 (realised £77,675 including premium). It can also be seen illustrated in C.Claxton Stevens & S. Whittington, 18th Century English Furniture, The Norman Adams Collection, p.108. Another version of the same item, but without the entre-lac moulded border was made for the Buff Bedroom at Paxton House, presumably also by Chippendale (see C. Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, fig.417) and is illustrated alongside the aforementioned Paxton bureau, together with a design for a bureau dressing table from the Director (1754) PL.XLI (figs 415 & 416). A George III mahogany kneehole possibly by Thomas Chippendale was sold Christies, London 22 January 2009, lot 29 which can be closely compared with the above lot having a part-fitted mahogany lined frieze drawer, laminated corner blocks behind the feet.
A George III carved mahogany bureau cabinet attributed to Thomas Bradshaw The pierced broken swan-neck acanthus and egg and dart carved and moulded pediment above a leaf and bellflower carved frieze and a pair of Gothic arched astragal glazed doors enclosing two adjustable shelves, the lower part with a sloping fall enclosing a panelled door flanked by triple cluster column 'secret drawers' and six pigeonholes with pierced fret arcading, above two short and three long graduated drawers and a wreathed base moulding, on acanthus carved ogee bracket feet, 107cm wide, 57cm deep, 264cm high. The distinctive pierced cornice is a feature often used by the cabinet-maker Thomas Bradshaw. A bureau bookcase by Bradshaw with this type of cornice is illustrated in C.Gilbert, Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture 1700-1840, p.119, pl.150. Bradshaw is listed as working at St.Paul’s Churchyard 1754-75 and subscribed to Chippendale’s 1754 Director. He was declared bankrupt in 1772, (see G.Beard & C.Gilbert, Dictionary of English Furniture Makers 1660-1840, p.99). A Bradshaw display cabinet of circa 1760 and formerly with Freshfords Antiques with pierced swan-neck fret pediment has comparable acanthus carved glazing bars, a more unusual feature. See Sotheby's, Important English Furniture, 30 June 2004 for a George III mahogany linen press, circa 1760, attributed to Thomas Bradshaw. A very similar unattributed bureau-cabinet, formerly with Hotspur, was sold Christie's, Important English Furniture, 6 July 2000, lot 150. A secretaire bookcase with pierced cornice, almost certainly attributable to Bradshaw and formerly with French & Co., New York, is illustrated in F.Lewis Hinckley, Metropolitan Furniture of the Georgian Years, 1988, p.138, Ill.212. Two further unattributed but similar examples can be noted in C. Claxton Stevens & S. Whittington, 18th Century English Furniture, The Norman Adams Collection, pp.192 & 197, the one illustrated on p.192 has a comparable wreathed moulding, whilst both have ogee bracket feet as seen in the above lot (although this example has more sophisticated feet) rather than the blind fret bracket foot which is often seen in Bradshaw pieces.
A George III paktong and burnished steel fire-grate in the manner of Robert Adam The rectangular cast iron back plate with bowed basket and three crossbars surmounted by turned urn finials, above pierced scrolling leaf engraved apron flanked by ring turned legs, with urn finials, on bracket feet, 64cm wide, 26cm deep, 74cm high. The design for this fire-grate can be closely compared with an engraving in W.Glossop,The Stove-Grate Makers Assistant, published by I.Taylor in 1771, fig 43 (see C.Gilbert & A.Wells-Cole, The Fashionable Fire Place 1660-1840, p.56). With similarities to late George II Scottish steel fire-grates by David Robertson circa 1760 supplied for Dumfries House, Ayrshire (see Christie's, Dumfries House, 12 July 2007, lots 16, 59 & 580). See also Christie's, London, 21 January 2010, lot 47 for another of related form.
