This stool forms part of a larger set of seat furniture, orginally at Glenham Hall in Sussex. Glenham Hall was the seat of the North family, who acquired the house in the late 17th century. Alterations were made to Glenham Hall in 1722 by Dudley North (1684-1729). It may have been at this point that the seat furniture was bought by the family.
In September 1924 the set was in the hands of a London dealer, Edwards of Regent Street (see <u>Connoisseur</u>, Sept 1924) and then went to the Wenergren Collection in Sweden, from which it was sold to a Stockholm dealer who sent it back to England for sale at Sothebys and Co. in April 1970.
