ROUND WINGED TABLE. OAK. POSSIBLY SPAIN, 18TH CENTURY.

Circular winged table. Carved oak wood. Possibly Spain, 18th century. Circular winged table made of carved oak wood that has a series of legs joined by chamfers, which have a decoration of channels and small discs, contrasting with the mere undulating shapes of the edges of some of the legs of the piece of furniture and the curve of the upper area of the spaces left on the fronts when folding the wings of the table. The simplicity of the piece links it more with the utilitarian furniture of prominent residences than with examples intended for the main rooms. However, the decorative elements indicated show a clear influence of Neoclassicism and a certain Baroque air, a mixture that is somewhat common in 18th century Spanish furniture. Note that the decoration focuses on the lower part of the piece of furniture due to the custom of dressing tables with rich fabrics to enhance them even more. Although walnut wood was often used in antique Spanish furniture, examples of oak are not too rare, as it is a wood with a showy grain, abundant at that time and resistant. Examples similar to the present one have been preserved in prominent residences and in important collections such as the Museum of Decorative Arts in Madrid, the Lope de Vega House Museum (slightly older examples), National Heritage Collections, etc.

WALNUT TABLE. GUADALAJARA, SPAIN, 17TH CENTURY.

Table with lentil-type leg. Walnut wood. Guadalajara, Spain, 17th century. A table with a flat rectangular top that has a drawer at the front flanked by two smooth corbels or mouldings, and that is made of carved walnut wood, that has four turned legs in what is known as the lentil type due to its shape based on small consecutive discs and that are secured together at the bottom thanks to the presence of a smooth rectangular die in each one and an undecorated wooden crossbar. The drawer at the front, with a key lock and a grooved iron knob, has two carved rectangles flanking the lock hole and high quality dovetail joints that can be seen when it is opened. Compare, for example, the walnut table with disc legs dating from the 17th century that is preserved in the collections of the former Municipal Museum of Madrid; with another walnut and pine platform table with carved drawers and lenticular turned legs from the National Museum of Decorative Arts in Madrid, dating from the 17th century; or with a Castilian buffet table from the 17th century from 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, particularly in the Guadalajara area.

DUCHT MARQUETRY COMMODE. 18TH CENTURY.

Dutch marquetry chest of drawers. 18th century. Requires restoration. Chest of drawers with four drawers at the front with a key lock and two handles on each, decorated with marquetry applications (on the sides, front and top panel) with a plant theme. Both the top panel and the front have a series of curves towards the front, and, in the lower area of the piece of furniture, some elements projecting downwards provide more movement (note the marquetry details present here as well). Stylistically, one can appreciate elements common to 18th century European furniture in the Rococo style (movement in the front, curves and counter-curves, etc.) together with elements common to the Dutch school (note, above all, the designs and colours used in the marquetry decoration).

WALNUT BENCH. SPANISH SCHOOL, 17TH CENTURY.

Bench. Walnut. Spanish school, 17th century. A bench made of carved walnut wood in its colour, with a backrest made up of a smooth rectangular board and a seat made up of another similar to the previous one, both arranged at an angle. The legs have a particular shape, known as “lyre-shaped”, and are decorated with plant and architectural motifs (scrolls) in relief. It also has two wooden “fasteners”, which have undulations in their profile. Lyre-leg tables originated in the Spain of Charles II, during the second half of the 17th century. The simplest ones have a simple cut in the side legs, and are even completely carved in models with peripheral centres. This support element, as can be seen, was also used in other types of furniture. The material is also the usual one in old Spanish cabinetmaking, although it should be noted that it seems that the most common thing is for the fasteners to be made of wrought iron.

VICTORIAN DRESSING TABLE. MAHOGANY, METAL, GLASS. ENGLAND, 19TH CENTUR...

Victorian dressing table. Mahogany, metal, glass. England, 19th century. A carved mahogany dressing table with turned front legs like banded columns topped with vase-like shapes, a drawer at the front and a recessed upper body with three drawers on each side and an enclosed space in the centre under the rectangular mirror, which has been enhanced with openwork plant decorations on the sides and a small tuft of architectural motifs on the top. The Victorian style is known as the style imposed during the reign of Victoria I of Great Britain towards the second half of the 19th century, popular in the country and very influential beyond its borders. The clean lines contribute to highlighting the grain of the wood, of great quality, and refer to a long tradition in English furniture, almost always characterised by fewer decorative elements than French furniture.

NAPOLEON III WRITING SLOPE OR BOX. MARQUETRY. FRANCE, 19TH CENTURY.

Napoleon III box. Marquetry. France, 19th century. Rectangular wooden box with a flat lid and supported by circular legs, with a front opening with a locking key and a hinged, folding top lid. Inside, there is a horizontal, flat space with edges highlighted with two lines of light marquetry (as is the lower area of the lid and the inside of the folding part of the front), and three drawers beneath it, also highlighted with light details. These types of pieces were used to hold different items (writing materials, jewellery, documents, etc.) either during travel or to be placed on a table and used there. The exterior decoration, centred on the front and top, consists of delicate compositions with a plant theme and a strong classicist influence made with wood of different tones: shields, flowers, scrolls, cartouches, leaves, etc. The sides of the box are highlighted only with lines of wood in a lighter tone. In general, the decorative elements, arranged with harmony and symmetry in various tones and light colours (rosewood, fruit, etc.), are sought to stand out against the dark tone of the rosewood. These types of boxes or chests were very common throughout the 19th century in Europe. During the time of Napoleon III (emperor from 1852 to 1870), they were usually decorated with both Boulle-style marquetry and wood, with works from houses such as the Maison Berthet & Peret standing out (a work preserved in private collections).

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.

DUTCH STYLE FRAME. EBONIZED WOOD. 17TH CENTURY.

Dutch style curly frame. Ebonized wood. 17th century. Rectangular frame made of carved wood and decorated with a series of parallel bands of different widths, alternating plain ones with others of different sizes (waves), reminiscent of basketry. Both in its colour and in the decoration mentioned above, the piece follows Dutch models, very popular during the 17th century Baroque practically throughout Europe, and frames were made in other schools following these prototypes. Compare, for example, with the frame of the “Portrait of a Gentleman” by Hans Memling in the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection (a Flemish piece, made of ebonized wood); or, in the same collection, with the frame of the work “Winter Scene with Skaters and Sleds in Front of a City” by Ruysdael; or with the “Vase of Tulips” by Philippe de Marlier and Frans Francken in the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum.
