專家說明

This form of secretaire-cabinet was introduced in the early 18th century and became particularly popular in the early Georgian period. Two documented comparable forms by the cabinet maker John Coxed (fl. 1703-18) are known and one similar example with figured walnut veneers and an arrangement of cabinet drawers is illustrated and discussed by Adam Bowett,English Furniture 1660-1714, Woodbridge 2002, pp. 226, pl.7:59.
