An early Victorian oak secretaire tall chest by Gillows

Circa 1855, the moulded top above a hinged fall (locked) disguised as five long drawers, over four long graduated drawers, one drawer stamped: '..(?)...BLACKFRIARS, GILLOW', 62cm wide, 62cm deep, 135cm high (24in wide, 24in deep, 53in high)

Footnotes

The 'Gillow' stamp on the present lot is practically identical to two such stamps which are illustrated in S. E. Stuart, Gillows of Lancaster and London, 1730-1840, Vol. I, 2008, Woodbridge, pl. 55, fig.'s (h) and (i), p. 95. These comparables appear to have been impressed upon two pieces of furniture documented as being made by the firm during the period, circa 1852-1857.
