A Pair of George III Side Chairs in the manner of Mayhew & Ince

About the Item

A pair of ash and elm side chairs in the manner of Mayhew & Ince. The oval back centred by a crest, details below, above a shaped seat and square tapering legs with foot blocks, swept rear legs. The crest as depicted upon this Pair of George III Hall Chairs dating to circa 1790 - 1810 are those of the family of Trevor, Denbighshire, North Wales. Upon the balance of probability and without any evidence to the contrary, these hall chairs were in the possession of a gentleman of the Trevor family. This family was well established in the Welsh border County of Denbighshire for many centuries. The family was also seated in neighbouring Welsh counties as well as the English County of Shropshire. The gentleman who owned these chairs was undoubtedly a kinsman to the Viscounts Hampden and Barons Trevor as there are no incidents of peerage (i.e. a coronet of rank) shown associated with the crest and given the presumed dating of the chairs there is a likelihood that the chairs could well have been commissioned by John Hampden-Trevor (born 24th February 1748 died 9th September 1824), the 3rd Viscount Hampden and 6th Baron Trevor (of Bromham) prior to succeeding to these peerages in 1824 John was the second (and surviving) son of Robert Hampden-Trevor (born 17th February 1706 and died 22nd August 1783), the 1st Viscount Hampden and 4th Baron Trevor (of Bromham) and his wife, Constantia de Huybert. He succeeded his brother, Thomas Hampden-Trevor (born 1746 died 20th August 1824), the 2nd Viscount Hampden and 5th Baron Trevor (of Bromham), but sadly held these peerages for only three weeks dying on the 9th September 1824.
