专家说明


The pattern for these chairs was invented by Thomas Sheraton who illustrated a design featuring tapering reeded and turned spindles as found on the present lot in The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Drawing Book, 1793 (illustrated E. White, Pictorial Dictionary of British 18th Century Furniture Design, Woodbridge, 1990, p. 92, plate XXVI).
