Specialist note
Whilst the design for this stick stand is not known amongst the work of George Bullock (c. 1777-1818), a design for a candelabra supplied to Lieutenant General Popham for Littlecote, Wiltshire survives where Bullock adorns the central stem with antlers in a related fashion.
On the second day of Bullock's stock in trade sale 3-5 May, Christie's, 1819, lot 30 is recorded as 'an noble and lofty candelabrum, the centre shaft covered with foliage bronzed, and terminated by a cluster of three deer's heads' (J. Murray, George Bullock: Cabinet-Maker, London, 1988, fig. 55, pp. 117-118.)
George Bullock was commissioned to supply furniture for Harewood House as a part of the Regency refubishments. This stick stand is one of a pair recorded in the 1842 inventories.
