This garden armchair has a distinctive Chinoiserie design that uses a traditional
design developed from the work of Frederick Crace for his Master piece – The
Music Room at the Brighton Pavilion c1818 for the Prince Regent. Frederick
Crace 's grand father had been the first keeper of the Royal collection to George
III and it is likely that Frederick had been influenced by the flood of oriental
works of art coming into England at that time. In Andrew Crace 's Chinoiserie
collection, the new classic Chinoiserie design is incorporated with the Hadham
bracket used on the rail at the front of the seats and around the table rails.
