Thomas Chippendale
(1718 - 1779) was a London cabinet-maker and furniture designer in the mid-Georgian, English Rococo, and Neoclassical styles.
In 1754 he published a book of his designs, titled The Gentleman and Cabinet Maker's Director. The designs are regarded as reflecting the current London fashion for furniture for that period and were used by other cabinet makers outside London. The Director shows four main styles: 1. English with deep carving, 2. elaborate French rococo in the style of Louis XV furniture, 3. Chinese style with latticework and lacquer, and 4. Gothic with pointed arches, quatrefoils and fret-worked legs.

Chippendale was much more than just a cabinet maker, he was an interior designer who advised on soft furnishings and even the colour a room should be painted. Chippendale often took on large-scale commissions from aristocratic clients. Twenty-six of these commissions have been identified.
