Ince and Mayhew was one of the most prestigious and enduring London cabinetmaking partnerships of the Georgian era, operating from 1759 to 1803. Founded by William Ince (1737–1804) and John Mayhew (1736–1811), the firm was a major rival to Thomas Chippendale. They provided exquisite Rococo and Neoclassical furniture to the British aristocracy, they became masters of the Neoclassical movement during the late 18th century, largely influenced by their frequent collaborations with the famed architect Robert Adam.

Provenance:
From the collection of fine Georgian furniture of Mr. Keith Denny, renowned British antique dealer and owner of Balmain Antiques, located in Ripon North Yorkshire.
