Reference: Z6146
Spanish table with lyre leg and iron fasteners, 18th century. The two lyre legs that support the work have wavy lines at the bottom and shapes on the sides that recall those of French cabriolets. Both are joined with an iron fastener and support a single-piece board with carved edges. This type of leg, called lyre legs due to their resemblance to the musical instrument, was widely used during the Renaissance, and continued to be used later due to the movement that their curved profiles provided to the piece of furniture.
