BP) with a paper label 'Henry Kettle, (Successor to Mr. Philip Bell), CABINET MAKER Upholder & Undertaker, at No.23, in St. Pauls Church-Yard, LONDON; and another, Lyon & Turnbull, Fine Antiques, 30th March 2011, lot 260, (£7500 exc. BP), with a paper trade label 'Philip Bell, Cabinet Maker and Upholder, at the White Swan, Against the South Gate in, St Pauls Churchyard London, Funerals Perform`d'.Like their contemporary, Giles Grendey, Bell and Kettle favoured cartouche shaped re-entrant panels and the use of high quality well figured timbers as demonstrated with the present lot.Similar cartouche-panelled doors are first seen on linen presses labelled by the London maker Giles Grendey (1693-1780), then on presses by Philip Bell and Henry Kettle.The serpentine panels of this bureau-cabinet relate to those of a bed, with antiquarian panelled headboard and canopy, acquired for Knebworth House, Hertfordshire in the 1740s and attributed to the Clerkenwell cabinet-maker Giles Grendey (d. 1780). Condition Report: Overall there are some scratches, marks, chips, cracks and abrasions consistent with age and use. Some old minor chips, splits and losses Some minor evidence of old worm, some old repairs The door lock looks original and has one key; the drawer locks are later and have no key The handles to the drawers are likely original There is a plastic inventory number to the interior of one of the secretaire drawers 'RP 378'; the suede inset writing surface is later.Features of this secretaire clothes press such as the choice cuts of timber, carved cornice, re-entrant cartouche shaped panels, original shaped trays and secretaire fittings combine to make this comparable to the work of Bell, Kettle or Grendey.Please see all the additional condition report photographs through the link on the condition report email as a visual reference of condition - they are a vital part of this report.
