About the Designer & Manufacturer:
 
Richard Hornby was a very accomplished designer whose simple elegant clean designs were popular with well off middle-class buyers looking for modern Scandinavian style pieces at the time. Fyne Ladye Furniture was rarely labelled and was retailed by top contemporary shops like Heals of London at the time.
 
Fyne Ladye Furniture of Banbury was one of the few quality British makers to use solid woods for their pieces in the late 1950s and early 1960s .
