A chair of almost identical form was in the Percival Griffiths Collection at Sandridgebury. It was subsequently in the Frederick Poke Collection at Langholm, London until sold in June of 2001.
Another chair, illustrated in the Dictionary of English Furniture, was with Moss Harris early last century. Its whereabouts are now unknown, although after comparing this chair with the one in the photograph, they may be one and the same.
Comparisons with the Houghton 'Eagle' Suite, which has been attributed to William Bradshaw or Benjamin Goodison, are also relevant. The Macquoid and the Moss Harris chairs, illustrated next to each other in the Dictionary of English Furniture, the Houghton chairs and this chair all have the identical shell to the knee which, in each case, extends upwards into the it. It is likely that these chairs were made in the same workshop.
