A walnut corner cupboard after a design by Ernest Gimson and Sidney Barsnley
SOLD
A walnut corner cupboard the original design by Ernest Gimson and Sidney Barnsley. Although this is superb quality I feel it is not quite up to the quality that Gimson and Barnsley were producing at the turn of the century and therefore later somewhere before the 1920's. There is a photograph of an oak version on page 99, fig 64 of 'Gimson and the Barnsleys' by Mary Greensted 1980, (it is situated behind the white ladder back chair images). For a later rendition which is in Lotherton Hall. See also Gilbert, Christopher 'Furniture at Temple Newsam House and Lotherton Hall', vol I, London 1978, p. 59, no. 41, illustrated with the design sketch. This version of 1903 is in oak and was purchased by Henry H. Peach, Dryad Works, Leicester in 1915. Height 78 1/2" 200cm, Depth from back along each side 22" 55cm, Width 39" 98cm.
