GUÉRIDON. MAHOGANY, BRONZE, ONIX. FRANCE, CIRCA LATE 19TH CENTURY.

Side table or “guéridon”. Mahogany, gilt bronze, onyx (possibly from Algeria). France, towards the end of the 19th century. Octagonal mahogany side table with a top made of light-coloured onyx or onyx. It has four legs joined at the bottom with a curved frame, which are joined in a central piece topped by a small vase-shaped piece. At the waist, gilded bronze applications of a classicist influence can be seen between the cubes that finish off the legs, which are decorated with bronze applications. Between each two legs there is a wooden pendant. There are known examples preserved in private collections of French furniture with onyx tops, of similar colours to this one, from Algeria. Stylistically, the table shows a strong French and neoclassical influence, with elements (the pendants) considered to have an orientalist touch.

MIRROR. WOOD. SPAIN, 19TH CENTURY.

Mirror. Carved and gilded wood. Spain, 19th century. Rectangular wall mirror with a frame made of carved and gilded wood, with some openwork areas. It has a crest at the top, with architectural and plant decoration (garlands of flowers, leaves, etc.) arranged around (and symmetrically) a curved shape reminiscent of 18th century Rococo rocailles. Also note the wavy edges of the frame in this area. In the rest, outside a usual composition of smooth mouldings, there are a series of plant and architectural motifs (scrolls, leaves, scrolls, etc.), with some details showing, again, a certain Rococo influence. The piece clearly shows the influence of 18th-century Rococo works, as already indicated, but with a more common arrangement in 19th-century works. In addition, a clear French influence can be mentioned (in this school we would speak of the Louis XV style). Compare, for example, with several mirrors in the Cerralbo Museum in Madrid in which the upper part of the mirrors shows soft curves (inv. 04166 –dated in the second half of the 19th century-, etc.).

CASTILLIAN TABLE. WALNUT, IRON. SPAIN, 17TH CENTURY.

Castilian table. Walnut wood, iron. Spain, 17th century. Restored board (brushed). Walnut table with four column-shaped legs, ending below in carved cubes on the fronts with geometric elements on which there are two circular shapes; these cubes are joined in pairs by means of carved jambs on the front with tabs. The waist of the piece of furniture has this same carved tabs around rectangular shapes on the sides and back (with ovals in the centre, highlighted with mouldings and circular elements). The drawer on the front has a decorated lock shield, lockable by key and two areas on the sides of it with rectangular panels framed by simple geometric shapes. Compare, for example, the walnut table with disc legs dating from the 17th century in the collections of the former Municipal Museum of Madrid; another walnut and pine dais with carved drawers and lenticular turned legs in the National Museum of Decorative Arts in Madrid, dating from the 17th century; or a Castilian buffet table from the 17th century in the Museo Casa Natal de Cervantes (Alcalá de Henares, Madrid). Typologically, due to its decoration, this is a model with a long tradition in the Castilian school. Weight: 20 kg.

PSIQUÉ DRESSING MIRROR. MAHOGANY, BRONZE. 19TH CENTURY.

Dressing table mirror. Mahogany, gilded bronze, marble. 19th century. Full-length rectangular mirror of the type known as “psyché” (or derived from it) that has a marble base and two circular tables on the sides, these with a white marble top, a vase-shaped foot with disc mouldings and, on the top, imitation textiles with tassels. The mirror has a gold band separating it from the wood, and has been flanked by two columns with a spiral-shaped shaft decorated with plant motifs and classical capitals; the upper part has been enhanced with a moulding and a figurative composition of a winged lady on a chariot holding a torch, accompanied by child figures and a Cornucopia; the lower part has been enhanced with a symmetrical composition based on plant motifs. Stylistically, the Neoclassical influence of the decorative elements and the composition of the piece of furniture can be clearly seen, with the figure inspired by classical mythology on the upper part standing out (it is possible that it is the goddess Aurora or Eos, or Diana-Artemis, Selene, etc.). A close relationship can be found with examples from the French Empire period, both in this decoration and in the lines of the piece. Note, however, that these full-length mirrors were very common in European palaces, but it is not so common for them to be presented with two tables to support clothing items or candelabras, a detail that is enhanced by the present example. The fashion of the full-length mirror was introduced in Spain during the reign of Ferdinand VII. From the swinging psyche mirrors of the early 19th century, the full-length fixed mirrors were later adopted, adding supports (normally for lighting). Compare this with outstanding mirrors such as those preserved in the Museum of Romanticism in Madrid, in the Royal Palace of the same city, or the one preserved in the Cerralbo Museum (inventory VH 0556) from between 1834 and 1866, which has two round side tables.

Rectangular chest with a flat lid, slightly raised on spheres, decorated on the outside with smooth mouldings on the top and bottom, and fittings (handles on the sides and lock shield) cut out to form vegetal and geometric elements. It is worth highlighting the presence of a “space” inside, on one side, with a lock closure and an iron decoration on the outside that retains polychromy (like some of the other fittings on the piece), and presents a drawing of volutes and vegetal elements with a certain Renaissance reminiscence and marked classicist influence.

Mirror with cabochon frame. Silver, enamel, wood, stucco, etc. Mexican school, 17th century. No contrast marks. Has faults. Mirror with a slightly rectangular frame made of wood with polychrome areas and embossed silver plating on stucco and enhanced with enamel cabochons with geometric elements in dark and light blue. On the front there are a series of smooth mouldings, one of which has the aforementioned polychromy.

Stylistically speaking, the work can be linked to works in the same technique made in Mexico, mainly on small chests.
