A PAIR OF GEORGE II GILTWOOD GIRANDOLES
AFTER DESIGNS BY THOMAS CHIPPENDALE, CIRCA 1755-65
Each with C-scroll, acanthus and rocaille-carved frames, the cartouche-shaped plates divided by conforming foliate-carved scrolls, the foliate swag cresting with sprays of roses and berries, with two candle-branches naturalistically modelled as oak-leaf branches with gilt-metal sconces and drip-pans, original water-gilding, the branches oil-gilt, one lacking part of the cresting
54 ½ in. (138.5 cm.) high; 22 ½ in. (57 cm.) wide, and slightly smaller

Almost certainly commissioned by Ambrose Isted for Ecton Hall, Northamptonshire and inherited with the house in 1881 by Charles William Sotheby.
Major Gen. F. E. Sotheby of Ecton Hall, Northamptonshire, sold Sotheby's, London, 14 October 1955, lot 124, where acquired by `How of Edinburgh' on behalf of the present owner. In the 1955 sale the smaller pair of two-branch girandoles was described as lot 124 (£1150) while the larger pair of three-branch girandoles was lot 123 (£500). However, the two-branch girandoles were illustrated as lot 123 and the prices realised suggest that lot 124 was in fact the larger three-branch girandoles or else there was a bidding war for them.
