專家說明

John Gee (d.circa, 1824), became partner to Benjamin Crompton, 'Turner in ordinary to George III', around 1779. Gee was sworn in with his partner Thomas Aycliffe in 1787 but is only listed as 'Chairmaker and Turner' at 49 Wardour Street, Soho, from 1799. Few of his commissions are recorded but a number of chairs with his stamp are found, often accompanied by stamped initials probably struck by his journeymen. See C.Gilbert, Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture, 1700 - 1840, Leeds, 1996.
