Late Georgian Leather Porter's Chair with Storage

A rare and stately Late Georgian porter's chair from England, dating to circa 1840. Originally designed to shield servants from cold drafts while monitoring the entryways of grand estates, this impressive dome-back chair exemplifies both function and form.

Upholstered in its original deep green leather with rich patina, the chair features finely executed button tufting along the tall barrel back and curved arms, creating a cocoon-like figure. Brass nailhead trim traces the contours of the frame, highlighting the craftsmanship and elegant proportions. The fully upholstered back continues the leather paneling with stitched detail, following the curvature of the dome.

Beneath the seat lies a discreet two-door storage cabinet, which is a rare and practical feature. The cabinet is crafted from hardwood and set flush into the base, making this piece as utilitarian as it is visually commanding.

This distinctive porter's chair serves as both a sculptural statement and an heirloom-quality seating piece. It is ideal for entryways, libraries, or fireside settings in refined interiors.

A Rare Pair of Mid 19th Century Gilt Bronze Mounted Louis XVI Style Console

The demilune Carrara marble tops above a long single drawer centered with a fluted husk-filled frieze and conforming entwined garlands, the sides with flowing floral and foliage designs, four columns leading down to a bottom marble shelf with a bronze gallery, standing on square tapering legs with foliate-cast sabots.

The locks on each piece stamped Souchet Paris.

“Souchet Paris” was a relatively uncommon lock maker who was traditionally associated with the workshop of Charles-Guillaume Winckelsen (d. 1871). The appearance of this particular name along with the high quality craftsmanship, which demonstrates a similar carcass and drawer construction are characteristics typically connected with the oeuvre of Winckelsen.

Winckelsen made high quality furniture in the style of the Eighteenth Century during the Nineteenth Century. He was established at 23, Val-Sainte-Catherine, Paris from 1854 until his death in 1871. As a result of his comparatively short career little of his work is available today. All recorded items by this maker are of of the highest quality, especially the bronze work. Jean-Louis-Benjamin Gros was his main furniture maker and Joseph-Nicolas Langlois his chiseller.

A PAIR OF GEORGE III MAHOGANY LIBRARY ARMCHAIRS ALMOST CERTAINLY BY THOMAS CHIPPENDALE, ca. 1770

The chairs would originally have formed part of a larger set or suite, like most commissions by Chippendale. They have acquired a wonderful surface over the years, and the bold yet highly accomplished carved detail leaves little doubt about their authorship. The harmonious design of these chairs is characteristic of pieces by the Chippendale firm, but was achieved by few other workshops of the 18th century.

The design for these chairs is preserved as an unpublished drawing by Thomas Chippendale in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The fact that it is unpublished supports a Chippendale manufacture, as it excludes other workshops who subscribed to Chippendale’s The Gentleman and Cabinet-maker’s Director and copied its designs. Chippendale also never precisely repeated his designs, but modified them each time with subtle yet noticeable changes, thus keeping each commission individual.

A similar model also based on the unpublished drawing was produced for William, 5th Earl of Dumfries in Scotland. The general outline of the Dumfries suite, which is fully documented and retained at Dumfries, is virtually identical, but slight changes to the front rail, the shape of the back and some of the carved detail make both models unique.

Another chair from the same set, formerly with Hotspur Ltd., London, England, was until recently in a private collection in New York.
