Society of Upholsterers - Trays 1765. This rare copper engraving is from Genteel Houshold Furniture, In the Present Taste with an addition of several Articles never before Executed, by a Society of Upholsterers, Cabinet-Makers, &c. Printed for Robert Sayer, London 1765. Little appears to be known about the Society, but it is thought to have been a group of the most fashionable furniture makers and designers in London. Robert Manwaring probably contributed most of the chair designs. Other designs have been attributed to Thomas Johnson, William Ince and John Mayhew, Thomas Chippendale, Matthias Lock and Matthias Darley. Size: 6in x 9in (15cm x 23cm) Very good with age-related toning in the margins. Blank verso. Please study image carefully.
