A REGENCY MAHOGANY WINE COOLER ATTRIBUTED TO GILLOWS, CIRCA 1825 48cm high, 85cm wide, 59cm deep Provenance: Private Collection, Paris.Acquired from Axel Vervoordt. This 'Grecian reed-gadrooned sarcophagus' wine cooler follows a pattern featured in Gillows 1820 sketchbook (Westminster archive no.3064). This cooler relates closely to a wine-cooler from Ellerslie House, sold Christie's London, 24 May, 2001, lot 43 (14,100). That example had been supplied by Banting, France & Co to Frederick, the 1st Marquess of Bristol for his London house in St James's Square, and was en suite with other items from the St James's Square dining room which were later removed to Ickworth, Suffolk. Another almost identical pair was supplied circa 1824 by Gillow & Co. of Oxford Street, London to Thomas John Wynn, 2nd Baron Newborough (d.1832), and were photographed by Country Life in The Hall at Glynllifon, Caernarvonshire.
