專家說明

Elements of the design of the present secretaire-bookcase recall the work of Thomas Sheraton. A swan neck cresting on a breakfront secretaire-bookcase, for example, appears in The Cabinet-Maker’s London Book of Prices, the design attributed to Shearer. The interior arrangement of drawers recalls exactly an arrangement in the same publication. (See E. White, Pictorial Dictionary of British 18th Century Furniture Designs, Woodbridge, 1990, p. 230).
