A George III mahogany and glazed display cabinet, circa 1780, 249cm high, 127cm wide, 47cm deep. Provenance: Formerly part of theÊcollection of George Demaine Haslam, a wealthyÊbusinessmanÊin the cotton tradeÊwho set about furnishing Dunham Knowle, Cheshire in the 1920's.ÊDemaine HaslamÊpurchased much ofÊhis furniture collection from Mallett, Partridge and other prominent dealers during that period. He later moved to Danehurst, Daneshill, West Sussex. Thence by family descent to the current owner. The overall form of this cabinet and its astragal glazing relate closely to a design for a 'Small Library bookcase' of Gillows illustrated in Gillow Furniture Designs. pl.164 Lindsay Boynton. The Bloomfield Press. 1995. The design, dated 1766 was produced for Mr. Thomas Park of Liverpool. According to the note for the design, provision for the lower part of the same bookcase to be a clothes press was also made. The current cabinet being sold is fitted with sliding trays in the lower section as a clothes press. For a desk with virtually identical moulding to the top of the lower section of the present cabinet see Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730-1840, Vol. II, Page 128, Plate 677. Susan E. Stuart, Antique Collectors Club 2008. This particular design of gadrooned moulding can often be found on furniture by Gillows from this date to the latter part of the 19th century.
