CHARLES SPOONER FOR ELMDON & CO: AN ARTS AND CRAFTS OAK DRESSER, the upper section with three shelves flanked by panelled cupboards, the base with an arrangement of four panelled cupboard doors with typical arts and crafts handles, with similarly panelled sides. Stamped to the reverse `Elmdon London` and with initials `HJSM`, 85"" high x 79"" wide. See illustration. Provenance: Charles Spooner at his home Eyot Cottage where he lived from 1892 until his death in 1938. The dresser remained at the property until his widow died in 1949 at which time the property, with the dresser, were sold to the current vendors parents. Charles Spooner (1862 - 1938) was famously described by Charles Ashbee as one of the figures with which the Arts and Crafts movement would be most readily identified in years to come, in saying this he ranked Spooner alongside Lethaby, Barnsely and Gimson. Unfortunately Spooners reputation has not grown at the same rate as some of his contemporaries despite a clear personal style and an architectural career that spanned some fifty years. Spooner established his own architectural practice in 1891 producing some fine domestic work as well as establishing a reputation for fine ecclesiastical work. Like many of his contemporaries Spooner felt that furniture design was an integral part of his work describing furniture making as `the finest and most finished of the building crafts`. Elmdon & Co. were furniture makers at 1 Ravenscourt Park, Hammersmith, London W. They specialised in manufacturing modern furniture and fittings, often to architects designs, and they endeavoured to produce work that harmonised with traditional furniture but did not copy it. The designs were to satisfy the requirements of good taste `without the enrichment in the form of carving, inlay, or painting, Â… We aim at producing well-designed and well-made furniture..` The firm is best remembered through a small catalogue `A catalogue of furniture made by Elmdon & Co at 1 Ravesnourt Park Hammersmith London. From designs by Charles Spooner& Arthur J.Penty`, undated but almost certainly dating to c1906. The dresser illustrated as Design No5. In this catalogue is almost certainly the dresser offered for sale here (see above). It is one of the most striking items in the catalogue and shows a clear debt to the Cotswold School of Arts and Crafts furniture production whilst showing an informed understanding of, and respect for traditional English cabinet work of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
