Game (2016) \u2018Contemporary British Crafts: The Goodison Gift to the Fitzwilliam Museum\u2019. London: Philip Wilson Publishers: The tables were part of a suite of furniture for the Chairman\u2019s Office of the TSB Group at 25 Milk Street, London. Peters described them in his invoice, dated 15 June 1990, as \u20182 fluted fan tables in solid Indian rosewood\u2019. They were modelled on a similar pair commissioned for the Stock Exchange and delivered in 1988. In the original design for the Stock Exchange pair (1984), the table tops were supported by four legs connected to an underframe but Peters revised this during the commissioning process after discussion with Sir Nicholas Goodison, in order to introduce the unified arch theme common to the whole commissioned suite. Documents relating to the commissions survive in the archives of the Stock Exchange and Lloyds Banking Group. Peters described this pair of tables as \u2018the best of all the attempts I have made at that design\u2019. The tables were given to The Fitzwilliam Museum by Lloyds TSB at Sir Nicholas\u2019s request in lieu of a leaving gift on his retirement from the banking group in 2000. Alan Peters was one of the most skilled furniture-makers of his day. In 1949 he was apprenticed to Edward Barnsley (1900\u20131987), of the leading family of \u2018Arts and Crafts\u2019 designer\/makers. After a course at Shoreditch whilst on teacher training, he studied Interior Design at the Central School of Arts. He established his own workshop in Hindhead, Surrey, in 1962, and moved in 1973 to Kentisbeare near Cullompton in Devon. He was acknowledged as the leader of the craft furniture revival of the 1970s. He employed assistants who were usually young people who had trained at college in design and construction; foremost among these were Keith Newton and Stephen Hopper. He moved to Minehead in 1998, but ill health led to a decline in activity. His work was rooted in the Barnsley tradition of fine craftsmanship, exposed joints, etc. The then Director of the Crafts Council, in the foreword to a touring exhibition of Peters\u2019s furniture in 1985, called him \u2018a paramount translator of the traditions of the past into the idioms of today\u2019.\n\nThat said, Peters was also much influenced by Japanese and Korean vernacular architecture and crafts. He travelled to Japan in 1975 on a Crafts Council bursary and to Korea and Taiwan in 1980. His furniture, made largely on commission, became known for his precision of manufacture, his use of solid woods, his deep understanding of woods and their qualities, his skilled laminations, his fine detailing and his clarity of design. Peters never claimed that his furniture was \u2018art\u2019 and once said that \u2018if some day someone regards a piece of my furniture as a work of art, that\u2019s fine, that\u2019s a bonus, but it\u2019s not my motive in producing it; that has always been to produce a piece of furniture to which I am happy to put my name.\u2019 His book Cabinetmaking: The Professional Approach (1984) was republished in 2009 and his revision of Ernest Joyce\u2019s The Technique of Furniture Making was published in 2003. He was awarded the OBE in 1990. The Alan Peters Award for Excellence was set up in 2010 to continue his legacy. It is open to furniture-makers under 30."},{"value":"The tables were designed in 1988 and made in 1989 as part of a suite of furniture for the Chairman's Office and Dining Room of the TSB at 25 Milk Street, London.

Game (2016) \u2018Contemporary British Crafts: \nThe Goodison Gift to the Fitzwilliam Museum\u2019. London: Philip Wilson Publishers: The tables were part of a suite of furniture for the Chairman\u2019s Office of the TSB Group at 25 Milk Street, London. Peters described them in his invoice, dated 15 June 1990, as \u20182 fluted fan tables in solid Indian rosewood\u2019.\nThey were modelled on a similar pair commissioned for the Stock Exchange and delivered in 1988. In the original design for the Stock Exchange pair (1984), the table tops were supported by four legs connected to an underframe but Peters revised this during the commissioning process after discussion with Sir Nicholas Goodison, in order to introduce the unified arch theme common to the whole commissioned suite. Documents relating to the commissions survive in the archives of the Stock Exchange\nand Lloyds Banking Group. Peters described this pair of tables as \u2018the best of all the attempts I have made at that design\u2019. The tables were given to The Fitzwilliam Museum by Lloyds TSB at Sir Nicholas\u2019s request in lieu of a leaving gift on his retirement from the banking group in 2000. \nAlan Peters was one of the most skilled furniture-makers of his day. In 1949 he was apprenticed to Edward Barnsley (1900\u20131987), of the leading family of \u2018Arts and Crafts\u2019 designer\/makers. After a course at Shoreditch whilst on teacher training, he studied Interior Design at the Central School of Arts. He established his own workshop in Hindhead, Surrey, in 1962, and moved in 1973 to Kentisbeare near Cullompton in Devon. He was acknowledged as the leader of the craft furniture revival of the 1970s. He employed assistants who were usually young people who had trained at college in design and construction; foremost among these were Keith Newton and Stephen Hopper. He moved to Minehead in 1998, but ill health led to a decline in activity. His work was rooted in the Barnsley tradition of fine craftsmanship, exposed joints, etc. The then Director of the Crafts Council, in the foreword to a touring exhibition of Peters\u2019s furniture in 1985, called him \u2018a paramount translator of the traditions of the past into the idioms of today\u2019.\nThat said, Peters was also much influenced by Japanese and Korean vernacular architecture and crafts. He travelled to Japan in 1975 on a Crafts Council bursary and to Korea and Taiwan in 1980. His furniture, made largely on commission, became known for his precision of manufacture, his use of solid woods, his deep understanding of woods and their qualities, his skilled laminations, his fine detailing and his clarity of design. Peters never claimed that his furniture was \u2018art\u2019 and once said that \u2018if some day someone regards a piece of my furniture as a work of art, that\u2019s fine, that\u2019s a bonus, but it\u2019s not my motive in producing it; that has always been to produce a piece of furniture to which I am happy to put my name.\u2019 His book Cabinetmaking: The Professional Approach (1984) was republished in 2009 and his revision of Ernest Joyce\u2019s The Technique of Furniture Making was published in 2003. He was awarded the OBE in 1990. The Alan Peters Award for Excellence was set up in 2010 to continue his legacy. It is open to furniture-makers under 30."},{"value":"The tables were designed in 1988 and made in 1989 as part of a suite of furniture for the Chairman's Office and Dining Room of the TSB at 25 Milk Street, London."}],"periods":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-109890","uid":"adlib-term-109890","uuid":"825251c2-9904-34be-b6ab-c855347f2247"},"summary_title":"20th Century, Late"}],"places":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-116327","uid":"adlib-term-116327","uuid":"fa14f54f-9382-3493-936a-4d588eeb9c4c"},"hierarchies":[[{"@link":{"type":"literal"},"name":[{"value":"England"}],"summary_title":"England","type":"country"}]],"summary_title":"Cullompton"}]}]},"materials":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-110025","uid":"adlib-term-110025","uuid":"fce46643-22bb-322c-8638-02825129233a"},"summary_title":"Indian satinwood"}},{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-39986","uid":"adlib-term-39986","uuid":"5e623980-7c87-3f20-8836-1f0b2ab6a115"},"summary_title":"East Indian rosewood"}}],"measurements":{"dimensions":[{"dimension":"Depth","units":"cm","value":"50.7"},{"dimension":"Height","units":"cm","value":"83.5"},{"dimension":"Width","units":"cm","value":"122"}]},"name":[{"reference":{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"term-74053","uid":"adlib-term-74053","uuid":"8070a143-6567-3d75-b6f4-642c22430675"},"summary_title":"side table"}}],"note":[{"type":"history note","value":"The Chairman's Office and Dining Room of the TSB, 25 Milk Street, London; moved to the Deputy Chairman's Office, Lloyds TSB Group Plc, 71 Lombard Street, London"}],"objects":[{"@link":{"cascade":true,"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"object-28428","uid":"adlib-object-28428","uuid":"6b81a272-5901-3b7e-a565-22b36fbd4a94"},"summary":{"reference":{"@link":{"impact":true,"type":"reference","workflow":true},"admin":{"id":"term-74053","uid":"adlib-term-74053","uuid":"8070a143-6567-3d75-b6f4-642c22430675"},"summary_title":"side table"}},"summary_title":"side table"},{"@link":{"cascade":true,"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"object-238737","uid":"adlib-object-238737","uuid":"60664469-f34d-3468-b2cd-ec89765ec74e"},"summary":{"reference":{"@link":{"impact":true,"type":"reference","workflow":true},"admin":{"id":"term-71409","uid":"adlib-term-71409","uuid":"f0091670-8068-3254-a8e1-028ef3b403bf"},"summary_title":"armchair"}},"summary_title":"armchair"}],"owners":[{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"agent-149638","uid":"adlib-agent-149638","uuid":"7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8"},"summary_title":"The Fitzwilliam Museum"}],"publications":[{"@link":{"notes":"Publ. p. 293","page":"293","type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"publication-400002285","uid":"adlib-publication-400002285","uuid":"15952748-560a-3e66-85e4-c632827a33b7"},"summary_title":"The Goodison Gift of Contemporary British Crafts to The Fitzwilliam Museum, University of Cambridge"},{"@link":{"type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"publication-200000755","uid":"adlib-publication-200000755","uuid":"d4e42ea5-8e47-3797-9f54-c0dec909700a"},"summary_title":"Crafts Magazine (1996)"},{"@link":{"notes":"Publ. p. 138,  LLoyds TSB Gift, Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, no. 4896, one table illustrated","page":"138","type":"reference"},"admin":{"id":"publication-5149","uid":"adlib-publication-5149","uuid":"2e5cd5fc-9bce-38bc-874e-972c5db7328c"},"summary_title":"2000 Review, The Annual Report of the National Art Collections Fund"},{"@link":{"notes":"Publ. pp. 82-5, no. 28 (with M.3-2000), illustrated pp. 83-5.
