A set of ten fruitwood, elm and beech Windsor chairs, Buckinghamshire, circa 1800-40
In the manner of the Markham Workshop, High WycombeTwo include a pair of armchairs, each back with splayed scroll-ended uprights, a shaped stay rail and two baluster-profiled cross splats, all centred by a turned roundel, the elm saddle seat raised on single-ring and concave baluster-turned legs, connected by H-form elliptical turned stretchers, (8+2)
|Literature:See Dr. B. Cotton, The English Regional Chair (2000), p. 82, fig. TV167, for a highly comparable Windsor armchair bearing the maker's stamp of 'W. Markham'. Although this maker is untraced the author notes that a Thomas Markham is recorded as a chair maker in High Wycombe in 1841, and a Henry and Joseph Markham in 1861, to whom it is possible that W. Markham was related.
