Provenance
An original Parminter item that was removed by Stella Tudor upon her marriage in 1880; it was taken with her to the vicarages of Turkdean then East Garston and, after her death, to Reading by her husband. Upon their deaths this item was recorded in both a 1925 and then a 1930 Probate and Valuation Inventory and was then passed to his daughters Margaret and Stella Tudor who returned it to A La Ronde upon Margaret’s purchase of the property in 1930. It was purchased from Mrs Tudor Perkins in 1991.
