Harewood House

For Edwin Lascelles 1767 - 1804.

The Chippendale firm's most lavish commission, probably worth over £10,000 in total. Some of the greatest masterpieces designed or made by both father and son remain in situ: the State bed, the Diana and Minerva Commode, the numerous magnificent looking glasses and suites of chairs.
