Thomas Chippendale 1718 – 1779 Designer and manufacturer of Cabinet

Thomas Chippendale is one of my favorite designers of furniture was a carpenter from London and furniture designer in the mid-Georgian, English Rococo and Neoclassical. In 1754 he published a book of his designs, titled The Lord and Creator, Director of the Cabinet. The designs are considered the establishment of the furniture fashion for that period and were used by many carpenters and others.

Chippendale's family had long been in the woodworking trades and thus probably received their basic training from his father, although it is believed was also trained by Richard Wood at York, before moving to London. Wood later ordered eight copies of the Director. The May 19, 1748 he married Catherine Redshaw in St George's Chapel, Mayfair and during the marriage had not been five boys and four girls to and his wife, Catherine, died in 1772.

In 1754 he partnered with James Rannie, a wealthy Scottish merchant, who put money in the business at the same time as Chippendale took the first edition of the director.

After James Rannie died in 1766, Thomas Haig seems to have paid 2.000 pounds of Rannie's widow, who used to become a member of Chippendale. Rannie one of the executors, Henry Ferguson, became a third partner to the business and became Chippendale, Haig & Co. Thomas Chippendale (Junior) took over business in 1776 allowing his father to retire. He moved to the then Lob fields (now known as Derry Street) in Kensington. Chippendale married Elizabeth Davis Fulham parish church in the August 5, 1777. The father of three sons.

Chippendale was much more than a carpenter, was an interior designer who advised in the soft furnishings and even the color should be a painted room. Often took in the Chippendale large-scale commissions aristocratic clients. Twenty-six of these committees identified.Here have Chippendale furniture can still be identified, The locations are:

Blair Castle, Perthshire, for the Duke of Atholl (1758);
Wilton House, by Henry, 10th Earl of Pembroke (c 1759 to 1773);
Nostell Priory, Yorkshire, Sir Roland Winn, Bt (1766-1785);
Mersham Le Hatch, Kent, by Sir Edward Knatchbull, Bt (1767-1979);
David Garrick, both in the city and at his villa in Hampton, Middlesex;
Normanton Park, Rutland and other houses of Sir Gilbert Heathcote Bt (from 1768 to 1778) including the management of a funeral of Lady Bridget Heathcote, 1772;
Harewood House, Yorkshire, to Edwin Lascelles (1767-1978);
Newby Hall, Yorkshire, by William Weddell (c 1772-1776);

Burton Constable Hall, Yorkshire to William Constable (1768-79);

He also collaborated in interior decor, designed by Robert Adam and Brocket Hall, Hertfordshire, and the Chamber of Melbourne, London, for Lord Melbourne, Sir William Chambers (c. 1772-1775).

Its director was used by many manufacturers of cabinet. Therefore recognizable Chippendale furniture was in Dublin, Philadelphia, Lisbon, Copenhagen and Hamburg. Catherine the Great and Louis XVI had two copies of the Director in its French edition.

The Director shows four styles major: English with great size, made in the French Rococo style of Louis XV furniture, Chinese style shutters and lacquer, and Gothic arches, quatrefoils and fret worked legs. His favorite was the mahogany seat furniture that is always used instead of solid wood veneers.

His workshop was followed by his son, Thomas Chippendale, the younger (1749-1822), who worked on the later neoclassical and Regency, the sensitivity and smear-phase Adam's final, "as Christopher Gilbert evaluated that. [5] A bankruptcy and sale of the remaining shares in the facilities of St. Martin's Lane, in 1804 found no last phase of the company, as the youngest of Chippendale furniture supplied to Sir Richard Colt Hoare at Stourhead until 1820 (Edwards and Jourdain 1955: 88).

Its designs became popular again in mid-late 19 th century, which

widespread adoption of its name in reruns of his style. Many of these designs after joining their relationship soon bear the name of their original concepts.

In 1779 he moved to Hoxton Chippendale, where he died of tuberculosis and was buried St. Martin-in-the-Fields on 13 November 1779.

There is a statue and plaque dedicated to Chippendale outside his old school, old Prince Henry Grammar School Travel Plaza in his hometown of Otley, near Leeds, Yorkshire. There is a full-size carved figure of Thomas Chippendale in the front of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
