A PAIR OF GEORGE III MAHOGANY HALL CHAIRS ATTRIBUTED TO INCE & MAYHEW, CIRCA 1790 Each with a 'spider web' back above the dished seat with a suede upholstered squab cushion, turned tapering supports united by stretchers each 94cm high Provenance: Christie's, London, 7 July 1994, Lot 53 Comparative Literature: H. Roberts, C. Cator, Industry and ingenuity : the partnership of William Ince and John Mayhew, London, 2022. H. Avray Tipping, 'Peper Harrow, Surrey, The seat of The Earl of Midleton', Country Life, 26 December 1925, fig. 6. This pair of chairs is attributed to Ince & Mayhew based on their similarity to a set of twelve chairs by the partnership, painted in imitation of silver wood and rosewood, made for the Earl of Coventry in 1778 at a cost of £21 12s, the bill describing the chairs as 'Umbrella Back Chairs' (Roberts, Cator, pp. 68-69, 352, fig. 289). Other comparable chairs by Ince & Mayhew include three satinwood armchairs with painted decoration made for Warren Hastings in c. 1790, now at Dalmeny House, Scotland (ibid., p. 367, fig. 336). A single chair photographed by Country Life in 1925 in the entrance hall at Peper Harrow, Surrey, is also related. Peper Harrow was almost certainly supplied with furniture by Ince & Mayhew, under the direction of the architect, William Chambers - mahogany hall chairs with oval fluted backs from the mansion are virtually identical to a painted set made for Viscount Palmerston for the hall at Broadlands in c. 1774 (ibid., p. 355, figs. 300, 299). Another related pair of drawing-room chairs with 'medallion backs' bearing the armorial of the Mytton family, was probably supplied by the partnership in c. 1780 to John Mytton II, Halston Hall, Shropshire, sold Christie's, London, 22 November 2007, lot 636 Condition Report: Marks, knocks, scratches, abrasions consistent with age and use, old splits and cracks, old chips and losses, Each with removable cushion, there are slats beneath this, almost certainly always designed to be covered, the cushion covers are recent and it is not possible to say if he wadding within is old or original - it appears to crunch so is likely hair and not foam. the covers do have signs of age and use in a domestic setting with some surface marks, Professional repairs and restorations to the rails, especially where they meet the legs, some re-railing in this area too, old splits and cracks, and signs of joints opening - however all solid and stable.Please see additional images for visual reference to condition Condition Report Disclaimer

Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948) - SS Rajputana - a unique collection of items collected by one Doris Starmer-Smith relating to Ghandi's trip aboard SS Rajputana whilst travelling from Bombay to the second Round Table Conference in London in August of 1931. The collection comprising: 1) a unique and never-before-seen photograph of Gandhi and his travelling party taken by Starmer-Smith showing Gandhi aboard the ship, beneath a funnel, appearing to be posing for photographs. The photograph has been mounted to piece a P&OSN Co 'SS Rajputana' stationery and is autographed by Gandhi along with fifteen others from his party and the Indian delegation. Other autographs include: Devdas Gandhi (Gandhi's son), Prabhashankar Pattani (prime minister or Diwan of Bhavnagar State in Gujarat, India), Ghanshyam Das Birla (founding president of Harijan Sevak Sangh), Madeline Slade (signed as Meera Behn - one of Gandhi's most faithful followers), Madan Mohan Malaviya (president of the Indian National Congress), Kavalam Madhava Panikkar (Diplomat & Statesman), Sarojini Naidu (political activist and poet) and others unidentified. 23cm x 18cm Notable for being a left-handed autograph - Gandhi wrote with his left hand for a brief period in 1931 due to pain in his right thumb. 2) Four undocumented photographs taken by Starmer-Smith of Gandhi aboard SS Rajputana, comprising: a photograph of Gandhi speaking with one of his party on deck (12cm x 7cm), a photograph of Gandhi leaning against a guard rail (8cm x 6cm), a photograph showing Gandhi and his party - a variation of the larger photograph noted above (7cm x 9cm), and a photograph of Gandhi coming aboard - his face partially obscured by a railing (9cm x 7cm). All supplied with their original period negatives and are sold with full copyright (buyer to arrange paperwork) 3) two pages of handwritten account by Doris Starmer-Smith recounting her being onboard with Gandhi and his party. Written on P&OSN Co headed stationery. Extracts include; 'Mahatma Gandhi crossed the barrier to the second saloon passenger's deck, and the crowd there surged thick and strong. Boat stewards made a protective wall around him with outstretched arms and everybody was laughing joyously,' 'Mahatma Gandhi stood by the boat rail, quietly contemplating the crowds below. His body, thin but wiry, was naked except for a rough white loin cloth and a strip of the same homespun cloth over his shoulders. His head was closely shaven except for one small tuft of long, straggling grey hair. His nose, ears and chin, all protruding markedly, his toothless upper jaw and gapped lower teeth, his old steel rimmed spectacles cutting into his flesh behind the ears... combined to give him a most unprepossessing appearance, yet there was a quiet dignity about him - a serenity which could not be quantified' 4) a collection of other items related to Starmer-Smith and the journey on the SS Rajputana - two SS Rajputana luggage tags named to Starmer-Smith, a newspaper cutting dated February 13th 1948 with published extracts of Starmer-Smith's letter which were submitted after Gandhi's assassination just two weeks prior, the front page of the Evening Despatch newspaper with headline 'Gandhi Shot Dead' - retained by Starmer-Smith at the time, seven photographs taken on board SS Rajputana (not containing Gandhi), a ship's menu dated September 9th 1931 signed to the rear likely by fellow passengers, and sundry other ephemera from the trip. A unique and historically important collection. Gandhi's trip aboard SS Rajputana was well documented in the press at the time, but this unique collection gives a glimpse into the events from a different perspective. Doris Starmer-Smith was a missionary on her way back to England from a four year teaching trip in Hong Kong. She was the Great Aunt of the vendor, and the collection was inherited by descent.

[Chippendale, Thomas] Letter sent on behalf of Chippendale, Haig & Co to Sir Rowland Winn 2 Grey Fryars [sic], Newgate Street, London, 23rd December 1772, single bifolium, written on one side only (with address on verso of conjugate blank), reading 'Sir, Another bill given by you to Thomas Chippendale for £200 being in my hands I take the liberty of acquainting you that it falls due on the 4th January next, in order that you may give timely directions for its being paid on the day it becomes due, you will be kind enough to acquaint me whether I shall apply for payment for this as I did for the other bill at your bankers in Pall Mall. I have the honour to be, Sir, your most humble serv[an]t, for H. J. Fergusson [sic], Jno Fergusson'Note: Note: Henry Ferguson, executor of Chippendale's first partner James Rannie (d.1766), entered into partnership with Chippendale in 1771 in a deal in which he and bookkeeper David Haig each acquired a third share in the troubled firm, thereafter known as Chippendale, Haig & Co. Sir Rowland Winn, of Nostell Priory, near Pontefract, Yorkshire, was one of Chippendale's most important patrons: 'The furniture made for Nostell Priory and for Sir Rowland Winn's London house is impressively documented by letters, bills, estimates, memoranda, receipts, and drawings which serve to illustrate how the firm programmed a major commission. Whether there was a special connection between Chippendale and his client on account of their being fellow Yorkshiremen is not proven. The tenor of their correspondence is, on the one hand, that of an impatient and frustrated client, railing against Chippendale's dilatoriness, often threatening to withdraw his custom with dire consequences to his reputation. Chippendale, on the other hand, seemed almost permanently desperate for payment and yet always remained obsequious' (ODNB).
