About the Item

Leonard William Collmann, stamped L W Collmann. A rare exhibition quality Gothic Revival oak chaise lounge or daybed with incised and inlaid details through out, a wonderful original poly-chrome panel in the style of AWN Pugin to the back end with stylised florets and fluer de lis on white chevrons aside gilt chevrons, retaining it's original silk fabric to the side arm depicting stylised flowers again with an AWN Pugin influence. The chaise stood on incredibly detailed elongated brass castors. Records show that Leonard William Collmann worked with Alfred Stevens on the entrance of the British Museum and exhibited an upright piano in the London 1862 Exhibition. Leonard William Collmann, first of Bouverie Street, and later of George Street, Portman Square was a pupil of Sydney Smirke, R.A. (who designed and built the Carlton and the Conservative Clubs), and was himself an excellent draughtsman, and carried out the decoration and furnishing of many public buildings, London Clubs, and mansions of the nobility and gentry. Collmann's designs were generally Classic and although his Gothic Revival furniture designs were a step above, like the chaise Lounge here of exhibition quality, were only made for commissions and extremely rare to find.
