Edwards & Roberts were acclaimed English cabinetmakers founded in London in 1845 and who specialised in marquetry, inlay and ormolu making reproductions of earlier styles such as their Thomas Hope ebony & brass inlaid mahogany chair in the collection of the V&A Museum. They were able to produce superb quality English antique furniture using some of the finest quality timbers and became one of the leading cabinet makers during the Victorian period.  As well as making and selling their own antique furniture, they also retailed, restored and adapted antique furniture. The company ceased trading in 1899.
