A George III carved mahogany side chair attributed to Thomas Chippendale Buttoned and close-nailed in blue silk damask, the cartouche shaped back above a serpentine seat and anthemion carved seat-rail on cabriole moulded legs headed by double 'C' scrolls and scroll feet, 61cm wide, 45cm deep, 89cm high, seat height 45cm. The chair shares similarities with other examples supplied by Thomas Chippendale. Among those are a set of ‘Ten mahogany arm chairs’ supplied to Sir Rowland Wynn, 5th Baronet, at Nostell Priory in 1767; a suite of seat furniture supplied to David Garrick in circa 1767 (a closely related open armchair is now at the Art Institute of Chicago); and a pair of bergere armchairs sold Christie’s London, ‘Thomas Chippendale: 300 Years’, 5 July 2018, lot 4. Another closely related open armchair was sold Christie’s London, 3 November 2011, lot 6. While there are no known documented examples of this particular model and no design for it as such in Chippendale’s ‘Director’, the stylistic similarities link it closely to his workshop’s oeuvre. It is known that Chippendale often worked on larger commissions with other cabinetmakers, such as Wright and Elwick, who supplied a number of pieces to Sir Rowland Wynn at Nostell Priory under the guidance of Thomas Chippendale.
