12-arm bronze chandelier. 19th century Adapted for electrical use, the twelve arms are joined above a sphere, which is fixed to the ceiling by a fixed turned arm with another sphere in the middle of it. The earliest examples of this element date back to the Middle Ages, taken for civil use from their use in churches, and their design began to develop from the 15th century. Made of glass, transparent or coloured, bronze or a combination of both, they were always lamps intended for important residences, both because of their size and the consumption of candles they required.

Mirror with a gilded wood crest. 20th century. Rectangular mirror with a decoration based on carved plant elements and a lattice motif under a plant shape. The curves drawn by the leaves show the influence of Rococo models in the creation of this work, the movement being greatly softened thanks to the straight lines of the frame. These rocailles are also located in this kind of latticework.

Desk table. Mahogany wood. 19th century. Rectangular table top decorated with a band of plant motifs on the outer edge, waist enhanced with bands carved with ova and plant motifs of classicist influence and legs decorated with an elegant cabriole shape and carved motifs (scrolls, bows and simple plant themes that extend along the waist of the piece of furniture) finished with very simplified claw shapes holding balls. This finish on the legs also appears in Chippendale examples and in American works and, apparently, was a theme inspired by works from the Far East, replacing the dragon's leg with the sphere with a lion's (thus showing English supremacy) and making it very popular in England during, approximately, the first half of the 18th century, and later recovering it.

Monk's armchair. Wood, leather. Spain, 16th and 18th centuries. Armchair with arms and high backrest of the type known as “friar’s chair”, which has leather with studs on the seat and upper part of the backrest, low, cut-out low-profile chambranes joining the front and back legs and middle chambranes or side rails (the front one carved with a relief of architectural motifs) joining the two front and two back legs, and simple armrests. In this case, it should be noted that the chambrane, due to the relief, would be from the 18th century. The friar’s chair, initially 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.

Rectangular writing table with three drawers at the front (locking by key, handle and lock shield), carved wooden lyre legs and curved latches in turned metal decorated with scrolls and other simple elements. The lyre leg (so called because of its shape) was a common element of Spanish Baroque furniture, as are latches (although not exactly in the way presented here). It was common in the 19th and 20th centuries to be inspired by antique Spanish furniture to create new pieces by adding some detail or modifying others to adapt them to new uses and tastes.
