Travelling in Spain and the Middle East he developed a love of Hispano-Mooresque decorative motifs, which he popularised in his patternbook, The Grammar of Ornament (1856). He was a prolific designer of wallpaper, carpets, textiles, metalwork and tiles for a number of commercial firms. From the 1850s Jones designed furniture for the luxury cabinetmakers Jackson and Graham, often with an elaborate inlaid ornament in the Grecian style like the symmetrical palmettes seen here. The monogram on the door is probably that of Henry Arthur Brassey, with the B doubled for symmetry. Jones did work for him, both in his town house in Park Lane, now demolished, and his new country house, Preston Hall, in Aylesford, Kent. Brassey (1840-1891) was a great benefactor of Aylesford, restoring the church and bell tower there, and building a school. reference term-15214 adlib-term-15214 744af2c4-a2f2-37ad-bbf4-2cd00e91ed9b Victorian reference term-106216 adlib-term-106216 825b8379-ec94-388e-9a59-624e40c090d0 literal England England country possibly London London reference term-32652 adlib-term-32652 82d8ae3b-f165-395c-ba93-dfa1c282b7be glaze Depth cm 57.2 Height cm 103 Length cm 240 reference media-206062 adlib-media-206062 301e5df5-2fb6-3c2a-8688-0779a4fa1099 jpeg aa/aa37/large_m_15_1980_1_201401_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 469 width pixels 1024 1616247465653 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/mid_m_15_1980_1_201401_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 229 width pixels 500 1616247465653 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/m_15_1980_1_201401_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 469 width pixels 1025 1616247465653 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/preview_m_15_1980_1_201401_mfj22_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 114 width pixels 249 1616247465653 1 image 0 media image reference term-115941 adlib-term-115941 f528965f-e73a-3515-b474-af94667777cb side cabinet history note Sold Sotheby's, Belgravia, 12 March 1980, English Furniture and Works of Art . . ., p. 30, lot 225; sold for £4,000 to Phillips and Harris, 54 Kensington Church Street, London, W.8, from whom purchased. reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Publ. p. 15, and pl.
