A Superb Gillows Linen Press
A superb Gillows Linen Press. In dense Cuban mahogany and retaining its original handles, feet and trays and with a very good colour and patina. 1910mm high, 1260mm wide and 620mm deep. Circa 1798.
An almost identical Linen Press is illustrated on page 66 in Volume II of Susan E Stuart's "Gillows of Lancaster and London 1730-1840" and was made by the Journeyman Wm Stubbs for Robert Phillips Esq, a successful textile merchant. No signature has been found on this piece but it is possible that Wm Stubbs also made this Linen Press.
W J Gravener Antiques is a family owned business, started in 1963 by William who was joined by son, Mark in 1981 and continues today with the same ethos of dealing in fine quality English and Continental furniture, mirrors and decorative objects, from the 18th & 19th centuries. Now under the stewardship of Mark and his wife, Louise, we take pride in maintaining the high standards which William set more than 50 years ago.
