Note: John Cobb (1715-1778) worked in premises at 72 St Martin`s Lane, London. He completed his apprenticeship in 1736 and went into partnership with William Vile in 1751. Upon Vile`s retirement in 1764 Cobb took over the firm. At this time Cobb took a managerial role and was primarily concerned with design and quality control. A change in direction was required to meet competition from other London firms such as Thomas Chippendale and John Linnell The neo-classical taste gradually took hold from the mid 1760s, first in an increasingly refined vocabulary of marquetry decoration applied to the bombé and serpentine forms of the `French manner` of the 1750s introduced to London by Pierre Langlois and popularised by Chippendale`s Director.
