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.

GAME TABLE WITH MARQUETRY. “PALO SANTO”, MAHOGANY, FRUIT TREE WOOD, BR...

Gaming table with marquetry. Rosewood, mahogany, fruitwood, bronze, leather. 19th century.

Stylistically, the influence of classicist models is clear in the piece, responding to the norms and tastes of Neoclassicism. This type of piece was relatively common in the interiors of the upper bourgeoisie, designed to be placed against a wall when not in use and to enhance the decorative function of the piece while taking up less space, thus promoting the functional aspect of the table.

TRUNK. LEATHER, WOOD, IRON. SPANISH SCHOOL, 17-18TH CENTURY.

Trunk. Wood, leather, iron. Spanish School, around 1700. Wooden trunk with a curved lid and rectangular shape, covered with leather on the outside, with fittings, handles, studs and two closures at the front, which has a front and top opening. Inside it has a lower space accessible from the front divided in two by a vertical piece of wood; the lid and part of the chest have a textile covering. The back does not have leather. The nails with circular heads are arranged in geometric shapes. The handles have disc decorations. The fittings, also worked, follow models based on architectural designs, motifs also present in the lock shields on the front. Some of the metal elements still have traces of gilding. These types of trunks were known as “travel trunks” because they were normally used to store objects on journeys, hence the leather covering and the apparent lack of decoration on the outside. Having two locks was for greater security, since the two keys had to be used together to open it and these were usually entrusted to two different people. Compare this with the 17th century travel trunk from the Viceroyalty of Peru in the Museum of America (Madrid), which has decoration with animals and plant motifs (embossed leather). Or with the Chest of the Mayorazgo de la Cerda (17th century) in the National Museum of Decorative Arts (Madrid).
