Purpose

Design for sedan chair poles, 1765 (1)

Notes

This drawing for sedan chair poles - certainly for use in London - is included in Adam's bill to Lord Coventry, dated February 1765, at a cost of £3.3s.

The style and function of these items was distinctly separate from Adam's interior decorative work for Lord Coventry, but have been included here because they share a common client. It is not known if these sedan chair poles were executed.
