Edward William Godwin attributed
An oak hanging bookcase, with portrait medallion roundels in moulded vulcanite. This cabinet has some design features associated with Godwin's work. The tops are quite similar to the bookcases he designed for Dromore Castle, see Soros, Susan Weber; The Secular Furniture of E. W. Godwin, p. 191, illus. 311, and a design for a buffet, p. 222, illus. 356, and in the left-hand corner of a line drawing for parlour furniture, p. 230, illus. 374. The elongated bottoms are a similar detail to hanging cabinets he also designed.
