A Stylish 19th/20th Century Corner Cabinet in the Chinoiserie Style: Painted and decorated with flowers, cross hatching and pagodas, interior fitted with two shelves, and raised on squat cabriole legs.
Note: The above two lots are by descent from George A & Ula Knowles, to current vendor, and were wedding presents to George & Ula from Lady Sybil Colefax & John Fowler, in 1938 George began working for the leading firm of interiors designers, Colefax & Fowler, as their book- keeper/accountant and it was here where he met his future wife, whom he married in 1944, in 1944 Lady Sybil Colefax retired from the firm and sold her share of the business to Nancy Lancaster for £10,000. John obviously had a creative flare for interest for the Chinese-style; this was no doubt based on his early careers at Thornton Smith & Peter Jones, where he hand painted wall paper and furniture in the 18th century style, respectively. With such a flare for design, this no doubt was recognised by Nancy Lancaster and it would appear they had a good working relationship. However, in spite of this, a commentator of the time, Lady Nancy Astor remarks "the most unhappy unmarried couple in England", in Martin Wood's book on Nancy Lancaster, English Country House style, page 117, there is a brief reference to George A Knowles. £100-150
