Robert and William Drummond were Chinese
furniture dealers in Beijing during the first half of
the 20th century. Dr Gustav Ecke in his seminal
publication Chinese Domestic Furniture, Beijing,
1944, made a particular mention of “Robert and
William Drummond, whose active interest has
enriched the present collection and the homes of
many Peking residents”.
