Note du spécialiste

This firegrate can be related to an example in Temple Newsam cast with the name 'T. Elsley' (C. Gilbert, Furniture at Temple Newsam House and Lotherton Hall, vol. I pp. 151-2, fig. 187). Thomas Elsley produced a pattern book of 94 designs for brass fittings in 1933 (N. Goodison, 'The Victoria and Albert Museum's collection of Metal-work pattern books', Furniture History, vol. XI, 1975, p. 25).
