Purpose

Alternative preliminary designs and a design for a sofa, 1763-66, unexecuted (3)

Notes

It is not known for which room these sofa designs were intended although it has been suggested that, like the long stool, they were for the gallery (now the dining room). They appear to have been unexecuted as Adam was not responsible for the suite of furniture upholstered in tapestry for this room (see note to Adam volume 17/73).
