An Irish Regency gilt Suite in the manner of Thomas Hope, circa 1805 comprising a sofa and a pair of armchairs of Grecian style, carved with fluted cornucopia arms and on monopodia legs, each carved with lion masks and paw feet (3) Sofa 89cm high x 170cm wide Chairs 89cm high x 67cm wide Provenance: Private Collection, Norfolk Purchased circa 1976 By repute from Caledon Castle, County Tyrone Literature: Clifford Musgrave Regency Furniture 1800 to 1830; 1961; Fig 41A Percy MacQuoid and Ralph Edwards Dictionary of English Furniture from the Middles Ages to Late Georgian Period; 195; Fig 279 Ralph Edwards The Shorter Dictionary of English Furniture 1987; page 165, fig 196 The Country Life Library of Antiques, Chairs, Edward T Joy, Revised Edition 1980, page 86, figure 67 (illustration of sofa) Splendour and Elegance: European Decorative Arts and Drawings from the Horace Wood Brock Collection; Museum of Fine Art , Boston From 1800-1810, Regency gilt neoclassical style furniture became very fashionable. Thomas Sheraton (1751-1806) in his influential book The Cabinet Dictionary of 1803 introduced designs subsequently copied and adapted by clients and their designers. A close example in design to Sheraton's drawings in the Cabinet Dictionary is the couch now on display at the Victoria and Albert museum designed by Gillow & Co in 1805 for the Reverend Edward Hughes and the Marquess of Sligo. There are similarities in design to this suite. At the same time well known Regency designers such as Thomas Hope and Henry Holland published their own designs. Thomas Hope's authorative publication of 1807 Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, included examples of monopedia legs with animal heads. The monopodium, a decorative support consisting of the head and one leg of an animal, often a lion or a leopard was first seen in Roman furniture but revivied during the late 18th Century. As with Sheraton, Hope's designs were taken and adapted by cabinet makers throughout England and Ireland. During his Grand Tour from 1794-1796, the English architect and designer Charles Heathcote Tatham (who studied under the cabinet maker John Linnell) drew similar monopodia to this suite and which were later published by Henry Holland.The frames have been regilded with some wear to the arms terminals
