We are thrilled to announce the recent acquisition of an important and rare George II solid mahogany caddy-topped chest by Giles Grendey.
The chest bears not one but two original trade labels for the maker and is of museum quality.
Giles Grendey was born at Wotton-under-Edge in Gloucestershire in 1693. His workshop was at Aylesbury House, St. John’s Square, Clerkenwell, London and is most famously known to have supplied an order to the duke of Infantado for his castle of Lazcano in Spain. His work can be seen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
