Item Description

A walnut and brass mounted hall bench by James Shoolbred & Co. In very good and original condition and bearing the registered design mark on the back rail. 630mm high, 560mm wide and 330mm deep. English. Circa 1885.

James Shoolbred & Co was established in the 1820’s as a draper’s shop, at Tottenham Court Road, London. The company first began supplying textiles to the furniture trade. By the 1860’s, the company began designing, manufacturing and selling its own high quality furniture in their thriving and fashionable furniture shop. By the 1880’s, James Shoolbred had expanded to such an extent that the business had to move to larger premises, becoming one of the first large department stores in London, who would supply quality antique furniture and accessories for the Victorian home.
