All aforementioned publications include designs for 'looking glasses' and 'pier mirrors' to which the present lot shares many design features. Most notably, see 'Oval Glass Frames' in the first edition of Thomas Chippendale's Gentleman and Cabinet-Maker's Director (1754), plate CXLVIII. The combination of the carved 'C scrolls', arches and palm fronds also aligns with the published designs of Ince & Mayhew; see ibid 'Architectural Frames' (plate LXXIX).
