A very similar chair is illustrated in Ackermann's ( Regency Furniture and Interiors, Pauline Agius, Marlborough, 1984, p.81, pl.63 ) where it is referred to as the Carlton House chair: "we presume from having been made for the august personage whose correct taste has so classically embellished that beautiful palace". He notes that they are available "from the ware-rooms of Messrs. Morgan and Sanders of Catherine-street, Strand".With similarities to a chair from the Collection of Sir Roderick and Lady Jones illustrated in Regency Furniture 1795 - 1830, Margaret Jourdain, London, 1965, fig. 75, p. 49.
