專家說明

This George II mahogany cabinet is possibly by the royal cabinet-maker William Hallett based on several stylistic features. A cabinet currently with (August 2018) Ronald Phillips Antiques, described as "without doubt from the Hallett Workshop," shares the same use of carved acanthus and a tablet with identical raised scrolling sheaves above a horizontal band of repeat wave carvings. Another similar secretaire by William Hallett was in the collection of Percival D. Griffiths at Sandridgebury (see R. W. Symonds, ‘English Furniture from Charles II to George II’, 1929, pl. 209).
