These chairs are from a set of six armchairs and two settees supplied to the third Duke of Ancaster (1714–1778) for Grimsthorpe Castle, Lincolnshire. The set was originally partially gilt and upholstered with Gobelins coverings (now Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam) after designs by Francois Boucher. The present coverings were applied between 1934 and 1858.
