No: 11071

A superb, small Chippendale Period Mahogany Serpentine Chest of Drawers with a moulded top with canted corners above a pull out brushing slide and four graduated drawers all retaining the original gilt brass Rococo pattern handles and escutcheons and flanked by canted corners with “Gothick” blind-fretwork, the whole raised on substantial, conforming ogee shaped bracket feet.

Circa 1770.

Price: £12,500-00p.

Height: 32.5”,82.5 cms, Width: 24.25”, 87 cms, Depth: 20.5”, 52 cms.

Notes: The blind-fretwork on the canted corners is an amalgam of two designs illustrated by Chippendale in plate 196 of the 3rd. edition of the Gentleman & Cabinet-Maker’s Director.

These model gilt brass handles and escutcheons are favourites of Chippendale's and appear on the very best of pieces by him and are identical to those illustrated on a pair of commodes made by Chippendale in Circa 1770 for Daniel Lascelles at Goldsborough Hall, see “The life and work of Thomas Chippendale” by C. Gilbert Vol II, page 127, Illus. 226 and page 147, Illus 270, also “Thomas Chippendale 1718-1779” by Adam Bowett & James Lomax, Chapter 2.6, pages 46-49.

Christie’s Dumfries House Catalogue, Vol. I Lot 30, pages 123-129, Desk by Chippendale with the identical metalware made in 1759.
