Summary
A pair of white-painted and parcel-gilt side cabinets, Italian/South German, mid- to late 18th century. -- Purchased by the Bambridge's as Bavarian in origin.
Provenance
Listed in the Inventory taken at Wimpole in 1965 in Drawing Room No. 2 (p. 5). Date of acquisition not recorded, but probably acquired by George Bambridge (1892 - 1943) and Elsie Bambridge (1896 - 1976), who purchased a largely empty Wimpole in 1938. The hall and contents were bequeathed to the National Trust in 1976 by Elsie Bambridge.
