Thomas Chippendale
Cabinet-maker, designer and entrepreneur

Starting out as a cabinet-maker in Yorkshire, Thomas Chippendale went on to supply Britain's 18th century elite clientele with the most fashionable furnishings. Rowland Winn, 5th baronet at Nostell, commissioned over 100 pieces of furniture from Chippendale’s firm, which can still be seen today in the grand interior worlds they were designed for.
