A SET OF SIX GEORGE II WALNUT DINING-CHAIRS CIRCA 1745 Each with a shaped toprail and pierced interlaced splat above a padded seat covered in close-nailed green velvet, on scrolled cabriole legs and pad feet, stamped to the rails 'ID' 36 ? in. (92.5 cm.) high; 24 in. (61 cm.) wide; 23 ? in. (60 cm.) deep
These chairs are probably from the workshop of Giles Grendey (d. 1780), reinforced by the 'ID' stamp on the seat-rails. Seat furniture by Grendey is sometimes stamped with initials: ‘HW’, ‘EA’, ‘GIL’, ‘TM’, ‘IT’. ‘TT’, ‘MW’, and ‘ID’ - these are stamps of the individual chairmakers that Grendey employed (Ed. G. Beard, C. Gilbert, The Dictionary of English Furniture Makers, Leeds, 1986, p. 372. For more information, see lot 244.
