    Very interesting. I have a question please. What direct influence did the royal family have on the design styles? Did they work directly with designers and "approve" the trends of styles? I can find little on what imput the royals had on design and to what degree. Many thanks these videos are very insightful.

    A remarkable bit of workmanship. A truly stunning piece that would make any owner so proud to share with guests. This type of work just isn’t done anymore. A shame really. Today in the custom furniture world you are charged so much more for so little. All you get are ugly modern pieces without charm, function, or surprise. Thank you so much for sharing this Gillows masterpiece.

    • @WRHarveyAntiquesLtd
      @WRHarveyAntiquesLtd Місяць тому

      Thank you for your e-mails and the centre door opens with folio dividers behind. The brass wheels are on the baize lined slide to ensure it retracts and runs smoothly. There is an image of the piece's back on the website . To lower the double rising top it needs to be raised slightly to release the easel stands and then lowered in two stages. I hope this is all helpful and the next 2 videos should further explain this magnificent cabinet. David Harvey

    Perhaps because I'm an admirer of Henry James, I can so see this elegant piece in Lamb House, his home in Rye. Were it mine, it would contain my collection of his works. With its proportions, and simplicity of design, it would work in so many settings.
