A RARE COTTON CHAIR COVER FROM QUEEN VICTORIA AT WINDSOR CASTLE patterned in red with three repeating emblematic tiles being Victoria's crowned cypher, a Tudor Rose and a Scottish thistle, the lining stamped in black-ink with 'Windsor Castle 1893, Room 520 No...' Provenance: letter to accompany reads ''...this is the chair cover of the tub chair used by Queen Victoria at Windsor. It came from her sitting room. Used regularly until her last illness. Given to my mother by the daughter of Mrs Davies, a palace servant of many years who was given it by his friend the housekeeper at Windsor Castle when the Queen's rooms were being refurbished by Edward VII and all the hangings and covers etc burnt in special incinerators. Mrs Davies asked her (as the sitting room curtains went by being carried by housemaids) if she could have a memento of the Queen. The housekeeper went inside and brought out the chair cover. 'That's from the Queen's chair' she said. Mrs Davies went on to St James's where she was chambermaid to the Prince of Wales eventually. The old Queen was very parsimonious and the chair covers had to be turned & patched until there was hardly any of the original left. This one has never been touched since it left her chair and there is still a faint odour of perfume perhaps from the pomade on her hair. Also a grease spot!! Joyce Williams, 29 Warren Road, Banstead, Surrey'' From a Vale of Glamorgan estate and by descent

Attributed to Mather Brown (American 1761-1831) Portrait of William Leyborne Oil on canvas 128 x 102cm (50¼ x 40 in.) Provenance: Leyborne-Popham Family, Sale: Sotheby's,The Contents of Littlecote House, 22nd November 1985, lot 871 This portrait once hung in historic Littlecote House, set amidst gardens and water-meadows on the banks of the River Kennet between Hungerford and Ramsbury on the Wiltshire/Berkshire border.Developed and extended over the years, the house has Tudor, Elizabethan and Georgian quarters which extend from the medieval core. Littlecote has hosted many famous visitors including Charles II, James I, James II, William III and Henry VIII, who is said to have courted Jane Seymour there.The story for this picture begins in 1589 when John Popham, later Sir John, Lord Chief Justice to Elizabeth I, acquired Littlecote following the sudden death of its notorious owner “Wild” William Darrell. The estate remained in the Popham family until 1929.Sir John Popham’s line of male descent failed in 1779 with the death of Francis Popham. Francis had married Dorothy Hutton, daughter of the Archbishop of Canterbury. They had no children, and when Francis died, Dorothy inherited. When she died in 1797, she left the Littlecote estates to Francis’s illegitimate son, also called Francis. However, he only outlived Dorothy by six years, and under the terms of her will, the Littlecote estates then reverted to Francis’s nephew, Edward William Leyborne, eldest son of Anne Popham and General William Leyborne Leyborne, who was obliged to add the name Popham to his own in order to inherit.His father, William Leyborne Leyborne, was Governor General of Grenada, Dominica, St Vincent and Tobago and died in the West Indies in 1775. In 1762 he had married Anne Popham, only daughter of Edward Popham of Littlecote, MP. The Leybornes lived at Westwell House, Westwell near Burford, Oxfordshire, and had four children: Edward William Leyborne, later Leyborne Popham; Shippen Leyborne; a daughter Marianne Leyborne, and finally, William Leyborne.William, born 1773, entered the Royal Navy and died in service shortly afterwards in 1790 aged 17. This portrait captures the young man in his naval uniform with a fleet of ships in the distance. It is likely that this was the last visual record of William Leyborne before his premature death. A memorial tablet was placed in the church at Chilton Foliat, in loving memory of the boy lost too soon: “Lamented youth! Tho’ thy too early doom has nipt these op’ning virtues in the bloom, still may we hope hereafter they’ll be blest with joys immortal, with eternal rest”.This portrait is mentioned in Vernon Watney’s guide to Littlecote House published in 1900. He notes that the portrait hung in the drawing room alongside a portrait of his sister Marianne, and was initially believed to be by George Romney. It was sold as part of the house contents in 1985 by Peter de Savary at Sotheby’s. Since 1996, the house has been owned by Warner Leisure and is now a hotel.We are grateful to genealogist Pauline Mobey, who has been immensely kind and informative in helping to compile this catalogue note

Attributed to A. W. N. Pugin (1812-52). A mid 19th century Reformed Gothic oak writing table, supplied by John Webb and possibly made by J.G.Crace, with detachable leather inset top, fixed by turn keys or buttons (some lacking), on fish-scale carved and collared hexagonal twin end supports, the chamfered sledge carved feet with Tudor rose roundels, united by a central chamfered stretcher, W.4ft 6in.Provenance: This table came from Horsted Place, Sussex, built for Francis Barchard by George Myers, A. W. N. Pugin's builder, according to the contract for the house to the design of Samuel Daukes. It is probable, however that the house was to some extent designed by A. W. N. Pugin. The furniture of the house was supplied by John Webb of 13 George Street, Hanover Square; it is possible, however, that Webb acted as a middleman and obtained the Gothic furniture at Horsted from the firm of J. G. Crace, who normally executed Pugin's designs, and may have had some furniture by him in stock at the time of his death in 1852.Victorian and Edwardian Decorative Art: The Handley-Read Collection. Ed. Simon Jarvis. London: Royal Academy, 1972. Nos. B6, pp. 24Literature:Compare a pen and ink design by A.W.N. Pugin for a card table in the Victoria & Albert Museum E.1537-1912 which features identical fish-scale twin end supports. These designs for a card table are on one of 11 sheets of designs by Pugin for internal decoration and furniture for Henry Sharples at Oswald Croft, Bishop Eton near Liverpool Pugin's designs were to be executed by J.C. Crace of the Crace firm for the owner Henry Sharples in 1847.Among other original designs by A.W.N. Pugin in the Victoria & Albert Museum are tables with detachable tops. One pen and ink drawing, museum no. E.1628-1912, is inscribed 'top fastened by oak buttons' which may be similar to the fixings on the detachable top of this table.
