This plaster cast of a chimney piece capital was used to carve a marble reproduction of the chimney during the restoration of The Great Room, Spencer House, London in 1992. The capital was designed by James 鈥淎thenian鈥� Stuart between 1756-1766 and is based on the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates in Athens, which was erected in 334 B.C. The original marble chimney piece is now at Althrop House, where it was moved during World War II.

This painted plaster cast is of a Center Boss from the Savoy Theatre on The Strand, City of Westminster, London. The original design for the interior of the theatre was by Basil Ionides in 1929.

Fragment of a Corinthian Capital

This is a cast squeeze of a chimneypiece of Hesiod.

Plaster cast of the head of the Hesiod term on the chimney piece of the Palm Room, Spencer House (London). Its pair is a cast of the head of Homer. The original marble terms were carved by Peter Scheemakers (1691-1788), a Flemish sculptor working in London. The forms of the heads were inspired by ancient Roman bust in the Capitoline Museum (Rome, Italy). Though this marble chimney piece was designed for Spencer House, it was moved to the other Spencer family estate, Althrop, during World War II. The graphite points and lines on the surface of the plaster cast of Hesiod indicate that it was used to guide the carving of a copy in marble. This copy was installed by Dick Reid and his workshop in the restored Spencer House in the 1990s. A cast of the central panel of the chimney piece is displayed in the 蜜桃传媒app Studio.

The original design for the woodwork is by Lewis Wyatt (1813-1817), for St. Mary鈥檚 Parish Church in Cheshire, England. This reproduction was made by molding the original oak screen and then casting expanded polyurethane foam into the mold. The hardened foam was then stained and polished to match the appearance of the original stained oak. Reid鈥檚 workshop often used this method to reproduce long lengths of intricate woodwork quickly and affordably.

The alternating egg and shell motif found in this molding was used by John Carr (1723-1807) in many of his houses. Newburgh Priory is a Tudor building in Coxwold, North Yorkshire, England that has undergone multiple renovations, including one between 1750-1760 led by architect John Carr.

This wooden model was used for the casting fiberglass urns with a stone finish to be placed on the roof of the front facade of Sandbeck Park in York. The original urns were in stone and designed by the Palladian architect James Paine (1717-1789).

This wooden model was used to develop a stone memorial for Mary de St. Pol, Countess of Pembroke (1304-1377) in the North Ambulatory of Westminster Abbey. Mary de St. Pol founded Pembroke College, the earliest Cambridge college to survive on its original site with an unbroken constitution from its first foundation. On Christmas Eve 1347 Edward III granted Mary de St. Pol a license fo the founding of Pembroke College. The finished painted stone shield related to this model was installed in the North Ambulatory of Westminster Abbey in 1991 at the wish of Bryan Earle King, Fellow of Pembroke College.

These capitals adorned pilasters carved with wood patterns in the Mantegna Gallery, and were restored during the late 1990s. The Mantegna Gallery was added to the Tudor portion of the palace in 1689-1698 by architect Sir Christopher Wren (1632-1723) and master of works William Talman (1650-1719). The pilasters separated the nine paintings of The Triumphs of Caesar, by Andrea Mantegna. Mantegna, one of the most famous and important artists of the early Italian Renaissance, painted The Triumphs for the Gonzaga family palace in Mantua, probably between 1484 and 1506. Charles I bought the entire collection of the Gonzaga family in 1620 and installed The Triumphs in Hampton Court Palace where they have hung since. The nine paintings depicted the ancient Roman ruler Julius Caesar on a triumphal chariot returning from his successful military campaigns. He is in a procession of Roman soldiers, standard-bearers, musicians and the spoils of war: captured weapons, artworks, gold and silver, prisoners, and exotic animals including elephants. As Ancient Rome was one of the strongest and richest empires in all of history, later rulers, like Charles I, collected Roman sculpture and imagined themselves as Roman emperors.

This plaster cast of the ceiling, the original of which designed by Robert Adam (1728-1792) between 1770-1771, was used during the restoration of 8 Queen Street Edinburgh, Scotland. The restoration was done by Simpson and Brown Architects with advice from Ian Gow in 1990. Reid created new ceilings and chimney pieces as part of the project.

This complete skirting from the Palm Room of Spencer House, London has water-leaf, flower, and ribbon and leaf designs.

These two wooden panels with the letters S and A, for St. Anselm, in an escutcheon were damaged in a fire that took place on Christmas Day 1992 in the Church of St. Anselm and St. Cecilia in London. The carved wood panels were part of the original design of the church, which was completed by Frederick Arthur Walters (1849-1931) in 1908. Walter's designed the church in an adapted continental Renaissance style, which must have responded to the fact that the congregation had strong ties to the Kingdom of Sardinia.
