TABLE. WALNUT, IRON. SPANISH SCHOOL, GUADALAJARA (SPAIN), 17TH CENTURY...

Table. Walnut wood, iron. Spanish school, Guadalajara, 17th century. Table with a smooth rectangular top, four spheres under the four legs (these joined by chamfers that start from rectangular cubes, and carved with spherical elements accompanied by lentil or disk shapes), and a carved waist in the lower area of the front. In this part, there is also a drawer with a key lock, decorated with a carving of plant motifs divided into two rectangular areas; inside, a board creates two spaces. Note the dovetail joints. As this is one of the most common types of furniture in the Castilian school of all ancient Spanish furniture, it is possible to find similar examples in important private collections and in prominent institutions. Compare, for example, with some buffets in the Casa Museo Lope de Vega in Madrid (one with column legs is dated to the first half of the 17th century), or with some of those kept in the Museo Casa de Cervantes in Alcalá de Henares in Madrid (in particular, one has a composition on the legs similar to that of the present one, the one in the museum dated to the 17th century and registered with inventory number CE00113).

”FRAILERO” CHAIR. WOOD, LEATHER. SPAIN, 17TH CENTURY.

Pair of friar's chairs. Walnut wood, leather, metal. Spain, 17th century. Armchairs with high arms and backrests of the type known as “frailero”, which have leather with studs on the seat and upper part of the backrest, low chambranes joining the front legs with the back ones and middle chambranes or side rails (the front one carved and cut out creating geometric motifs) joining the two front legs and the two back ones, and simple armrests, with scrollwork finishes. The friar's chair, originally of Italian origin, became one of the most common pieces of Spanish furniture since its introduction in the 16th century, being characteristic of this and the 17th century and being recovered again in the historicist movement of the 19th century. Being such a deep-rooted tradition in Spain, this type of model was never stopped being created.

ORNAMENTAL MIRROR WITH CREST, 18TH CENTURY.

Cornucopia with a prominent crest in carved and gilded wood, 18th century. Cornucopia with a rectangular mirror inside, decorated in its frame with simple mouldings (some concave, others straight and others convex) without exaggerated movement and, on the outside, some light garlands of flowers. The upper crest stands out, very highlighted, formed by rocailles, curved mouldings, flowers and a vase. This work is of great interest because, while the simple lines to which we have referred respond more to models that follow the Neoclassical style, other elements (rocailles, concave mouldings together with convex ones, movement, decorative exuberance...) respond to the Rococo style. In the 18th century in Spain both artistic styles coexisted. Requires cleaning and light restorations

WEDDING CHEST. WOOD, TEXTILE, METAL, REMAINDERS OF POLYCHROMY. SALAMAN...

Chest. Carved wood, metal, textile, remains of polychromy. Salamanca area, 17th century. Rectangular chest with a flat lid made of carved wood that preserves remains of the original polychromy, corners and other metal fittings and textile details in certain places. It is decorated on the outside with a moulding in its lower area based on curved motifs and a simple carved decoration with a plant theme arranged in a rigid symmetry highlighting an inscription in capital letters on the front (“Long live María / Fernandez”) alluding to the original owner of the piece. On the inside it has no decoration or other elements than the parts of the fittings of the corresponding hinges and the exposed wood. The rectangular, flat-lidded chest model was very common in Spanish art since the Middle Ages, with its decorative elements varying over time and with the styles. The metal elements of the piece of furniture (corner guards on red fabric, lock shield on the front, hinges on the inside, handles on the sides for moving it, etc.) have a decoration of waves and finials that refer to Baroque models, as well as columns (flanking the keyhole). The carved decoration on the front (simplified flowers, stems, leaves and perched birds, with simple polychromy in three colours - red, green, yellow -) is not too fine (something common in popular examples), and follows a composition and colours very common in popular chests in the Salamanca area, with the use of walnut being common for its construction (as in all Spanish furniture, due to the resistance of the wood and its abundance at that time). The addition of a female name in capital letters on the front (a detail that would indicate that this piece of furniture is a chest made to store a wedding trousseau, hence the abundance of decoration in a popular utilitarian piece and the presence of a lock with a key) is another element worth highlighting in this piece of furniture. A similar model is mentioned in one of the most used reference books on Spanish furniture, ENRIQUEZ ARRANZ, Maria Dolores. Spanish furniture in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries. 1951. p. 39; cat. no. 74; plate 74; Beautiful example of a bridal chest or chest, popular Spanish style of the 17th century, with rudimentary carvings forming a series of stems, flowers and animals. It is polychrome and bears the name of its owner in the centre: 'Long live Maria Hernandez', .

PEDESTAL TABLE IN MAHOGANY, GEORGE II STYLE, U.S.A., CA 1860.

Folding mahogany side table, George II style, USA (America), circa 1860. A tripod with animal claws grasping a ball serves as the base of the foot of the piece of furniture, adorned with a small fluted column and a plant bulb. The mechanism that allows the piece of furniture to be folded is located above this foot, and the upper board is round and has a curved profile flanked by straight sections. American furniture owes much to English furniture, as the present example shows: it follows the so-called George II style, named after the monarch during whose reign it was created (he was born in 1683 and died in 1760), and is based on models taken from Roman Renaissance architecture.
