Lot 105
A George III carved giltwood girandole mirror in the manner of John Bradburn and William France, circa 1765, with triple candle arms, the cartouche-shaped moulded frame with carved foliate scrollwork, supporting a spray of leafy fronds surmounted by a shell motif, the base similarly carved with festoons and drops of husks, the scrolled candle arms with drip-pans and nozzles in cast and chased gilt-metal, re-gilded, 150cm high, 86cm wide In the gallery of Aske Hall, the Yorkshire estate purchased by Sir Lawrence Dundas Bt (1712 - 1781) in 1763 and the present seat of the 4th Marquess of Zetland, hang a pair of girandole mirrors of almost the same design as the present mirror. It is known that Sir Lawrence Dundas commissioned more than one cabinet-maker to help him furnish his various houses and Robert Adam probably helped him to make his choice. Amongst the small number of eminent eighteenth century craftsmen, who were busy working on houses such as 19 Arlington Street, Sir Lawrence Dundas's London house and his equally important country house at Moore Park, was the highly successful partnership of John Bradburn and William France. John Bradburn (d. 1781) had a carving shop in Hemmings Yard in St Martin's Lane from 1758. He and his partner, William France (d. 1774) had been working for the cabinet-maker partnership of William Vile and John Cobb for Anthony Chute at The Vyne, Hampshire, before both were employed by the Royal household at Buckingham Palace. William France was joined by John Bradburn on work invoiced to Sir Lawrence Dundas soon after July 1764. It is interesting to note that the entry in France's June 1764 accounts to Sir Lawrence which states: "For 2 elegant carved Girandoles with a large plate of glass, and 3 lights in each to shew the glass, festoons and drops of husks falling from Different parts all gilt in burnished gold at £28 6s £56 12s." In his article 'Some Rococo Cabinet-Makers and Sir Lawrence Dundas', Apollo, September 1967, Anthony Coleridge states of these mirrors that William France's invoice seems to correspond in every detail to the pair of mirrors now in the Gallery at Aske and it would therefore be reasonable to suppose that these are the ones supplied by Bradburn and France. This being the case, the mirror here described is of such a similar design, differing only minutely in a few unimportant details, to suggest that this mirror may also possibly be from the workshop of William France. Another pair are recorded in France and Bradburn's joint account of 21st December 1764 with a charge of £97 12s. These magnificent girandoles, photographed hanging in the ground-floor front parlour of 19 Arlington Street in Country Life, 17th September 1921, pp.350-355, fig.7, were sold by Mallett in 2003.Please Note: Two carved elements from the sides of this mirror frame are not present with this lot.
Lot 65
Ω A large Regency mahogany circular extending dining table in the manner of George Bullock , early 19th century, the finely figured top with four semi-elliptical additional leaves decorated with foliate ebony marquetry, attached with numbered pull out supports all above a four column base on turned feet joined by a shaped plinth, with further floral carving and motifs, 71cm high, 232cm diameter with leaves, 155cm diameter without leaves Related tables include an expanding circular dining table with four supports at Wentbridge House, Yorkshire, in the collection at Temple Newsam House, Leeds, illustrated in C. Gilbert, Furniture at Temple Newsam House and Lotherton Hall, Leeds, 1978, no. 413; a table with a similar concave-sided plinth sold Sotheby s London, 2 June 2000, lot 156. A further almost identical table was offered Christie s London, 22 November 2007, lot 700. Both the distinctive monumental base with its central finial and the bold ebony marquetry inner border to the leaves epitomise the work of the leading Regency cabinet-maker George Bullock (d. 1818), who established his Piccadilly `Grecian Rooms in 1812 before also opening a `tasteful repostitory at 4 Tenterden Street, Hanover Square, London. The latter premises were highly commended in Rudolph Ackermann s The Repository of Arts for their magnificent `British Oak furniture and the ebony foliate border here relates to that on a sofa designed by Bullock in Ackermann s Repository of Arts, 1817, pl. 93. The style of the marquetry also has affinities with `Tracings by Thomas Wilkinson, from designs of the late George Bullock 1820 , now known as the Wilkinson Tracings which were acquired by the City Museum and Art Gallery of Birmingham in 1974 (see Clive Wainwright et. al., George Bullock Cabinet Maker, 1988). Two `Jupe patent dining tables with the a very similar pattern of base are recorded in the dining room at Mottisfont Priory (see H. Avray Tipping, `Mottisfont Priory, Hampshire , Country Life, 19 November 1921, p. 656, fig. 9).
