A Mahogany William IV Period Chaise Longue
Of Petite Proportions
By Gillows of Lancaster
Constructed from mahogany, with confident and typical William IV carving; supported on lotus leaf and floral carved legs with concealed castors; the frieze adorned with scrolled motifs interspersed with shells and carved paterae, one side with a curved backrest carved with acanthus leaves. With fabric upholstery and a squab cushion.
English, circa 1830
A rare example, this chaise longue is documented in the Gillow archives held at Westminster, alongside a drawing which corresponds exactly to the carved details and distinctive foliate clasped legs.
