Mrs Daisy Fellowes of Donnington Grove, Berkshire, thence by family decent. Donnington Grove, Berkshire, was built in 1763 for the historian and antiquarian James Pettit Andrews. The mansion was constructed in "Strawberry Hill Gothic" a style named after the house created for Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill in London.For a near identical example of chair see, Christie's, London, The English Collector, 19th November 2015, Lot 542 (£5,625). The chair bears many similarities with the Strawberry Hill chairs, currently held at the Victoria & Albert museum in London (W.29:1 to 3-1979). Designed by Richard Bentley and made by the London cabinet-maker William Hallett. These chairs are some of the most celebrated examples of Gothic Revival furniture and furnished Great Parlour or Refectory at Horace Walpole's 'Gothick' villa at Twickenham. For a pair of related 'Strawberry Hill' chairs see, Christie's, London, The Earls of Macclesfield at Shirburn Castle, 4th June 2009, Lot 137 (£32,450). Condition Report: Marks, scratches and abrasions comensurate with age and use. Some old chips and splits throughout , some old losses. some old repairs, some old glued breaks, detached elements glued back into position and lifting to laminated elements of fretwork of back. One section is detached but present. One 'section to the reverse of the back of the outermost 'layer' of the laminate appears likely to be an old replacement. (see images) Some minor movement in the joints of the frame, joints may need tightening. There are various old losses to the detailing of the finials, particularly to one finial (see images) The finial elements on the left and right corners of the back are loose and the finial on the right is detachable. They are possibly old replacements. Both have previously been glued into position. There are old splits to the top of the uprights adjacent to where the finials enter them, some have previously been glued. All seat upholstery elements are worn, faded, torn and distressed. They require replacement. Two pendant finial sections lacking elements from the seat rail. There are old chips, minor repairs, some losses and some small replacements to elements of the fretwork. At the base of one rear leg an angled section has been cleanly broken off but fairly crudely screwed back into position. This does not appear to be a later spliced in section of replacement. (see images) The blocks to the interior corners of the seat rail are old additions/ replacements. The seat rails themselves appear original and the carved elements of the seat rails/ frieze are integral to them. There are old worm holes to the rear seat rail. (see images) There may be worm holes in other areas but they are not immediately detectable. Some evidence of coloured varnish, likely used to assist in matching replaced elements to the existing. Please refer to the additional images for visual reference to condition. Condition Report Disclaimer
