A FINE GEORGE II MAHOGANY POLE SCREEN

with an oval petit point banner worked with lovers in a landscape serenaded by a musician, with a castle on a hill beyond, and enclosed by a foliate border, the tripod base with acanthus-carved column and rocaille-carved cabriole legs with bold curling leaves at the top and ending in claw and ball feet,
77cm x 59cm

This exceptional pole screen may be compared to others in the great 20th century collections of English furniture assembled under the guidance of Percival Griffiths.
