Description

KILLADOON HOUSE, PROPERTY FROM AN IMPORTANT IRISH ESTATE


AN IRISH GEORGE IV MAHOGANY TWO-TIER DUMB-WAITER, CIRCA 1825, ATTRIBUTED TO MACK, WILLIAMS & GIBTON


with two circular revolving tiers on reeded supports with moulded downswept legs, on scrolled feet and brass castors

82cm. high, 63.5cm. diameter; 2ft. 8¾in., 2ft.1in.

Probably supplied to Nathaniel Clements, 2nd Earl of Leitrim, KP PC (Ire) (1768-1854)

The partnership of John Mack, Zachariah Williams and William Gibton traded together from 1810 in Stafford Street, Dublin until John Mack's death in 1829, when Williams and Gibton continued to work together until the death of Gibton in 1842. A tantalizing scrap book of bill-heads in the Killadoon archive list Williams and Gibton among the suppliers in 1833 and the present dumb-waiter can be attributed to the firm on stylistic grounds alone.
