Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this stunning, Museum quality Hampton & Son''s of London hand carved solid Walnut and Oak Bacon Settle bench
Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price
Hampton & Son''s was opened in 1830 by William Hampton as a shop for the sale of general household furniture, located on Cranbourn Street. Their sofas and chairs became popular during the Edwardian era amongst the upper class. They made the furniture for the Park Lounge in the Dorchester Hotel in London and the Royal Yacht Britannia. International customers also included the Nizam of Hyderabad and the Maharajah of Kashmir. Hampton & Sons had the Royal Warrant of Appointment to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother.
This is, simply put the finest example of this type of bench you will e...ver see. Hand carved from solid slabs of English Walnut and Oak, it is extra large (it dismantles into two easy to transport and install pieces) the arms depict Hounds heads with the side and central back panels being ornately carved with grape vine detailing, the central back panels have Jacobean style Linen fold carvings, the base fronts have what look to be Shakespearian heads surrounded flowing floral details, the sides have similar details again to the base but with Armorial shields
The piece retains its original key which is temperamental, it operates the back two cupboards which open to reveal coat and umbrella storage, the umbrella section has the original zink lined drip tray. The base seats lift up to offer large amounts of shoe storage. The bottom right seat has the original stamp Hampton & Son''s with the order number 4552
This piece just screams English country house decadence, this is the conversation piece of all hallway conversation pieces! As mentioned above, being so large, it has been designed to slip in to two pieces, the back cupboard is one and the base another, the arms remove which provide most of the stability when joining them back together
In terms of condition the timber has been lightly cleaned hand condition waxed and hand polished, it has a wonderful period patina to it
