A George III harewood, purplewood, ebonised and fruitwood marquetry serpentine commode1775-1780, possibly made by the cabinet making partnership of Ince and MayhewWith boxwood stringing, the top with projecting keeled angles inlaid with a central foliate and bellflower pendant-adorned pelta shield with two spreading ribbon tied 'thyrsi', the roundel with a foliate tendril pattern surround, the oak leaf garland hung from two ring chains flanking the roundel, the swag ends terminating in two opposing inlaid interlocking oval shields and Neoclassical quivers of arrows, each shield inset with scrolled acanthus, stylised foliage and an anthemion, above a pair of twin panel inlaid doors divided by an alternating opposing palmette and foliate s-scroll pattern frieze, the panels and frieze of each door overlaid with a patera and within a re-entrant tablet, over an oak leaf garland hung from four suspended ring chains, enclosing one shelf, with a shaped apron below, flanked by square tapering panel inlaid angles intersected with flute inlaid blocks, on square section supports terminating in later brass cappings and castors, 137cm wide x 58cm deep x 80cm high, (53 1/2in wide x 22 1/2in deep x 31in high)Footnotes:ProvenanceIt is believed within the family of the current owner and vendor that the present lot historically formed part of the Trevelyan family collection. It is thought that this commode resided in the house of the present vendor's great grandfather, Sir Ernest John Trevelyan (1851-1924), at 1 Marston Ferry Road, Oxford. Later on, it was evidently passed on to his daughter, Sylvia, and then subsequently inherited by her daughter, Charlotte. The ancestral home where the commode may have come from is that of Nettlecombe Court in Somerset, an Elizabethan country mansion that has belonged to the Trevelyan family since the 15th century. It was one of the two great houses owned by the family and has since passed into public ownership from the mid-20th century onwards. The Trevelyans have a rich connection to the arts, most notably through the painter and poet Julian Trevelyan (1910-1988).A number of Ince and Mayhew commodes with related Neoclassical inlay or similar inlaid Neoclassical motifs and designs to those featuring on the offered lot are illustrated in C. Cator and H. Roberts, Industry and Ingenuity, the Partnership of William Ince and John Mayhew, 2022, London. These include the following, variously dated between circa 1770 and 1785, which are pictured therein: fig.'s 115-120, 131-134, 167-171, 181, 222-225, 229 & 250, pp.'s 295-6, 301, 317, 329-330 & 338.Four of these examples incorporate striking Neoclassical elements which are notably inlaid 'sans traverse', as on the offered lot, across the combined surface area of their pair of doors. These appear therein, Ibid, fig.'s 184, 222, 224 & 235, pp.'s 318, 329-330 & 334. Interestingly, two of these 'sans traverse' models also utilise a trompe l'oeil effect in the manipulation of areas of their marquetry which is reminiscent of the three dimensional characteristics of certain aspects of the inlay on the above. One was made circa 1770 for the Duke of Marlborough whilst the other was a piece, likewise circa 1770, supplied by this cabinet making partnership upon behalf of Sir James Lowther.A more restrained Neoclassical commode (one of a pair in fact), of a slightly later circa 1780 date and which was made for Lord Digby, employs a similar palmette pattern of inlay to that featuring so prominently on the present example. This comparable is also illustrated as before, Ibid, fig. 163 & 164, p. 310. As an additional point of interest, the pelta-shield inlay on the top of the offered lot is reminiscent of the closely comparable recurrent pelta-form pattern features inlaid into the top of a demi-lune pier table made for Sir Cecil Bishopp by Ince and Mayhew in 1781, Ibid, fig.'s 500 & 501, p. 422.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
