專家說明
The firm of Charles Hindley & Sons was active from 1817. Their first premises, at 32 Berners Street manufactured carpets, rugs and floor cloths. Between 1820-30 they acquired the cabinet-makers firm Miles & Edwards and occupied their premises at 134 Oxford Street and from then began producing furniture. Examples of types of furniture produced by the firm, such as a walnut writing-table and an ormolu-mounted kidney-shaped yew-wood and ebony-inlaid writing-desk, are illustrated in C. Gilbert, The Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture 1700-1840, Leeds, 1996, p. 267, figs. 497 and 498.
The activities of the firm are discussed in L. Microulis, 'Charles Hindley & Sons, London House Furnishers of the Nineteenth Century', The Bard Studies in the Decorative Arts, vol. 5, no. 2, 1998, pp. 69-96.
