CASTILLIAN CHEST. WALNUT, WROUGHT AND POLYCHROMED IRON. SPAIN, 17TH CE...

Castilian chest. Walnut wood, wrought iron and polychrome. Spain, 17th century. 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.

GROUP OF 6 CHAIRS AND 2 FAUTEUILS, WALNUT AND EMBOSSED LEATHER, 19TH C...

Chairs in walnut wood and embossed leather, 19th century. Set of 6 chairs and two matching armchairs, made of walnut wood and with seats and backrests in embossed leather (some leathers require restoration). The structure is based on traditional models of the Spanish armchair, adding decorative details from various artistic styles, such as wavy arms (Rococo) or carved and curved chamfers, or lentil-turned fasteners (Baroque). It was common in the 19th century to make furniture by combining elements from different artistic traditions, using highly successful local models as a base in Spain. Embossed leather on seats and backrests is another characteristic element of the Peninsula, widely used throughout the centuries.

CABINET OR CUPBOARD OR TWO TIERED BUFFET. WALNUT. SPAIN, 18TH CENTURY.

Two-body wardrobe. Walnut wood. Spain, 18th century. Two-body wardrobe made of carved walnut wood with doors (two pairs, top and bottom) and drawers (four, towards the centre of the piece, arranged in pairs) and slightly raised by disc-shaped legs. The upper part is finished off by a series of mouldings of different widths (the largest with small fluted corbels, elements also present flanking the drawers); doors (with simple inlays or marquetry in lighter wood) and drawers are also enhanced by similar mouldings; the corners of the door areas are enhanced by smooth-capital Solomonic columns; below, on the legs, another moulding-shaped finish, thinner than that of the upper part, frames the piece of furniture. The sides have simple recessed carvings differentiating the different areas mentioned. The careful study of the composition and its details (and therefore the quality) can be seen in the joints of the wood, in the care with which the elements are used (the door hinges are left out to provide a little more decoration), etc. The presence of the Solomonic columns and the delicate use of fluted corbels placed opposite each other to add some more movement show the influence of the Baroque in the cupboard. The general lines of the piece correspond to a common composition in Spain (compare with wastepaper baskets, the sacristy cupboard of the Burgos Cathedral from the 18th century, etc.), and the wood is also the most common in cabinetmaking in this country. Compare the piece with the archimesa in the Lázaro Galdiano Museum in Madrid (first half of the 17th century, note the corbels); the well-known panelled cupboards; Louis XIII style pieces (noting the usual differences); etc.

MAHOGANY COMMODE EMPIRE STYLE WITH GILT BRONZE, CA 1880.

Empire style chest of drawers in mahogany and gilt bronze, circa 1880. Chest of five drawers with garland fittings, key locks and decorated lock shields, on semi-spherical legs and a top in dark stone. The front is flanked by two stipes with a female capital under a plant motif and a base resembling women's feet. It is made of mahogany palm and the fittings are in high-quality gilded bronze. Details such as the purity of the furniture's lines, its clear geometric shape, the angles, the presence of the caryatids on the front and the smooth back, the centralisation of the relief in the gilded bronze appliqués, the use of mahogany and the inspiration from classical antiquity (Greek and Roman) place the chest of drawers within the Empire style. This dominated all French arts at the beginning of the 19th century during the government of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), and was one of the most important inspirations for the Second Empire style, which was born under the government of Napoleon III and was very successful between approximately 1860 and 1880. The work stands out for the high quality of its wood and the perfection of its bronzes, both in its reliefs and in the gilding. These French metal ornaments were the most highly regarded in cabinetmaking for their quality, due to the strict control established by the central power over the guilds responsible for their production, in which the specialization of the different workshops necessary for their creation and subsequent sale to master cabinetmakers in particular or to other merchants who, on occasions, exported them, stands out. Although it is true that it is not a commissioned piece of furniture but one made following a system somewhat more similar to mass production, in all cases they were important works destined for the houses of the main families both for the materials used in them and for following the aesthetic novelties of the time.

CASTILLAN WALNUT CHEST. TEXTILE AND WROUGHT IRON. SPAIN, BAROQUE, 17TH...

Castilian chest. Walnut wood, textile and wrought iron. 17th century. Rectangular chest with a flat lid and no legs, decorated with carved mouldings on the upper and lower edges of the piece of furniture and along the front, avoiding the lock on the front. This is made of metal, placed on red textile, and has an openwork composition based on scrolls and other simplified forms, a decoration that is also present in the rest of the chest's fittings. To the sides, on the front, there are two metal pieces to secure the lid closure; on the sides you can find the handles, common in this type of chest, also enhanced with an openwork iron composition on textile, similar to that of the rest of the elements. Inside there is exposed wood, together with the corresponding fittings (hinges and lock pieces), as well as a division towards one side by a section covered in wood. The various openwork fittings follow a tradition that is already found in chests at the end of the 16th century (compare this example with the 15th century Gothic chest in the Valladolid Museum, for example), but with decorative motifs of Baroque influence: braces, simplified scrolls, curves, etc. The shape of this chest, rectangular with a flat lid, is also the usual one in this type of furniture from the Gothic period, without any characteristic influence of the 17th century being appreciated in this sense. It is necessary to highlight the weight that this typology would have in Spanish furniture, as it would last until the 19th century, especially in Andalusia, with only slight changes, the most notable of which would be the change from decorative elements in openwork iron, as in this example, to using gilded brass studs drawing shields, plant themes, etc. The chest responds to what is usual in Castilian models, totally different from those of Catalonia, Valencia and Mallorca. Although it was the most common piece of furniture at the time, not many examples have survived: compare with the two 17th century chests in the Museo Casa de Cervantes (CE 202 without fittings, CE 145 with them) in Alcalá de Henares (Madrid).

CHEST. WALNUT, TEXTILE, WROUGHT IRON. 17TH CENTURY.

Chest. Walnut wood, textile remains, wrought iron. 17th century. Rectangular chest or chest made of walnut wood with a flat lid with fine mouldings on the outside, another one running along the fronts of the piece and dodging the lock on the front in a downwards peak and, again, a slight staggering based on these motifs on the lower part, on the edge cut with curves and counter-curves that partially hides the tubular legs with discs of the piece of furniture. On the sides there are two metal handles, and in the corners two corner pieces (in each one) reinforce and decorate (simple plant elements cut out in the plate). The lock shield is decorated with animals and plant motifs; the hinges and corresponding part of the bolt, on the inside of the lid, have remains of red textile highlighting the cut-out decoration on their ends. The shape of this chest, rectangular with a flat lid, is also the usual one in this type of furniture since the Gothic period in the Spanish school. It is important to highlight the importance that this typology had in Spanish furniture, as it would last until the 19th century, especially in Andalusia, with only slight changes, the most notable of which would be the change from decorative elements in openwork iron, as in the present example, to using gilded brass studs drawing shields, plant themes, etc. This chest has points in common with Baroque examples from the Castilian school. Although it was the most common piece of furniture at the time, there are not many examples preserved: compare with the two 17th century chests in the Museo Casa de Cervantes (CE 202 without fittings, CE 145 with them) in Alcalá de Henares (Madrid), or with the chest dated between the middle and end of the 18th century in the Casa Museo Lope de Vega (Madrid) that has the lower part cut out.

DESK. WOOD (PALO SANTO AND OTHERS), METAL. JEANSELME FILS GODIN ET CIE...

Bureau or desk. Rosewood, wood, metal. Jeanselme Fils Godin et Cie, Paris, France, 19th century. Stamped (with signature). Sample desk covered perhaps designed to go near a wall that has two drawers on top and three under the sample (the left ones are two; the right one is one with a lockable compartment, although in external appearance it seems two to balance the composition of the furniture). When opening the lid, a writing space with some compartments towards the back of the furniture is revealed. On the outside, it has a delicate marquetry work in which the rosewood stands out, and some carvings focused only on certain areas (top trim, drawers, slightly cabriolet-shaped legs, etc.) to enhance the elegance of the furniture and the quality of the wood used in its finish. The cabinetmaker's signature can be seen in areas that are not easily visible: "JEANSELME FILS GODIN ET CIE / EBENISTERIE, SIEGES ET TAPISSERIE / RUE DU HARLAY 7 & 9, AU MARAIS". Although this brand is part of the prominent Jeanselme family (fl. 1824-1930), this particular brand was used in furniture between 1863 and 1871 according to some experts, after having been founded by Charles-Joseph-Marie Jeanselme in Paris in 1824 (Auguste Godin took over the management of the same in 1871; after his retirement, the firm was known as A. Godin et Cie until 1883; upon Godin's death, the business continued with the founder's son, Charles-Henri Jeanselme under the name Ch. Jeanselme et Cie until 1930). By the mid-19th century, the Jeanselme firm was one of the most renowned in Paris. Thus, it is possible to find important examples associated with this name in the Metropolitan Museum of Arts, in prominent residences and private collections, etc.

GLASS AND BRONZE CHANDELIER. 19TH CENTURY.

Ceiling lamp with thirty lights. Bronze, glass. 19th century. A chandelier or ceiling lamp with a total of thirty lights and their corresponding glass saucers, reminiscent of the days when candles were used, and a gilt-bronze structure with arms decorated with scrolls and curved lines, on which clear glass pieces are placed along the central axis. A series of chains with polygonal beads, rectangular pieces, and others with particular shapes, upturned points, etc. adorn the different levels on which the lamp is structured. The variety of shapes and the quality of the colorless glass are worth highlighting. The profiles of some beads (teardrops, polygons, pendants) are found in both Bohemian and French works, and in most from the Royal Glass and Crystal Factory of La Granja de San Ildefonso (Segovia, Spain) due to their great popularity. Stars or florets are considerably rarer in the surviving examples, and, according to experts, are more often found in the French school (and in the Spanish school due to the latter's influence). The mastery of the carving is evident in the profiles and the fine modeling of the shaft. The decorative bronze elements clearly show Neoclassical influences, and the beaded and other glasswork is more reminiscent of the so-called "Maria Theresa lamps," based on those commissioned by Empress Maria Theresa for her coronation in factories in the Bohemian region of the Czech Republic in 1743. This typology spread rapidly throughout Europe, varying in design and serving as an example in major glass factories to this day. They clearly differ from the work done in Murano (Italy), but the chandelier follows a tradition that has its roots in Bohemia and continued in France, where as much attention was paid to gilded bronze as to glass. Similar lamps can still be found in prominent residences such as the Fernán Núñez Palace (Madrid), the Viana Palace (Córdoba), the National Museum of Decorative Arts (Madrid), the Paz Palace (Buenos Aires, Argentina), the Louvre Museum (Paris), and others.

TABLE. WALNUT. POSSIBLY CASTILLE, SPAIN, 17TH CENTURY.

Table with turned leg. Walnut wood. Possibly Castile, Spain, 17th century. Walnut wood table carved in its colour with a straight top, two drawers at the front decorated with interconnected circles (the two on the outside with a star on both and wooden handles) and four turned legs with balustrade shapes joined together by straight jambs (decorated only at the bottom with a simple cut-out on the front side, matching the cut-out edge of this front under the drawers). As this is one of the most common types of furniture in the Castilian school of all ancient Spanish furniture, it is relatively common to find similar examples in important private collections and prominent institutions. Compare, for example, the so-called “Bufete de la Inquisición” from around 1600 that is in the Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas in Madrid, or with several small 17th-century buffets in the Museo Casa Natal de Cervantes (Alcalá de Henares, Madrid) and the Casa Museo Lope de Vega (Madrid).

EMPIRE COMMODE. MAHOGANY, OAK, ORMOLU BRONZE, SAINT ANNE MARBLE. FRANC...

Empire chest of drawers. Mahogany, oak, gilded bronze, Sainte Anne marble. France, 19th century. Rectangular chest of drawers with a Sainte Anne marble top, made of carved mahogany and oak, with three drawers at the front decorated on the front with two rings emerging from the jaws of two lion protomes in gilded bronze and a lock shield with two crossed cornucopias; under the top there is another hidden drawer with internal divisions; the front legs have been carved in the shape of a claw, and the rear ones are rectangular. The marble known as Saint Anne is a dark grey veined marble from Belgium and widely used for furniture tops, monuments, etc., although Louis XV and Victorian style fireplace fronts and other objects made from this stone have been preserved. The high-quality gilt bronze fittings, the composition of the furniture and its decoration link the piece to the French Empire style, so called because it developed mainly during the First French Empire (although it began during Napoleon's military campaigns in Italy and Egypt). However, it is worth noting the lack of decorative elements for which the French examples are known. Similar examples can be found in prominent European residences, mainly in France. In Spain, similar chests of drawers are preserved in various palaces and institutions such as the National Museum of Decorative Arts or the Museum of Romanticism in Madrid, for example.

WALNUT TABLE WITH WROUGHT IRON FASTENERS, SPAIN, 17TH CENTURY.

Dining table in walnut wood and wrought iron fasteners. Spain, 17th century. With restorations. Rectangular table top on two lyre legs with edges animated by curves and counter-curves that have been secured to the table top by means of two S-shaped wrought iron fasteners, with balustraded areas towards the centre and decorated with discs where the last two meet. The upper part, really simple and with clean lines, clearly shows that it is a piece of furniture created for purely utilitarian purposes. However, its size places it in a house of a reasonable level: this meant that it was always seen in the same place, but dressed in a quality fabric and with a series of important pieces on top of it, ceramics, silverware, glass..., which were especially appreciated by the owner. For this reason, it is the lower part that does show a little more work with the lyre legs with their animated profiles through curves and counter-curves and small semicircular mouldings, elements that, due to their movement, place the work within the Baroque. These sinuous shapes are also seen in the fasteners, tubular in the shape of a baluster towards the centre and highlighted by discs in two sizes. Walnut was the wood most often used in furniture of the period in Spain, and its shapes also reflect this origin. Although it was frequently found in houses of a certain level, not many examples have been preserved due to changes in taste and customs over the centuries. Notable examples include, for example, the one in the Sala de las Firmas (Signature Room) of the Viana Palace in Córdoba, the one in the dining room of the Casa Museo de Lope de Vega in Madrid, one in the Museo Nacional de Artes Decorativas (National Museum of Decorative Arts) in Madrid (inventory CE 27479), or another in the Patio Elcano of the building called the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Madrid (Plaza de Santa Cruz).

SET OF TWO ORNAMENTAL MIRRORS. GILT WOOD. ROCCOCO, 18TH CENTURY.

Pair of cornucopias. Carved and gilded wood. 18th century. Pair of carved and gilded wooden cornucopias decorated with a fine moulding on the inside and an elaborate composition of vegetal elements with curved shapes on the outside, leaving empty spaces and a marked asymmetry in both, tempered by carving both examples with the same decoration. This type of work was only carried out for main houses, since its main use was to reflect the light of candles and lamps in these luxurious interiors, also showing the economic power of their owners. The method of making mirrors from sheets of glass was discovered in Venice in the 16th century, and was kept secret until approximately a century later, when the role of mercury in the process was known in London and Paris, allowing the expansion of these elements. However, the use of cornucopias did not spread throughout Europe until the Rococo period, and their use and creation has continued since then. From the beginning, and with the idea of showing the economic prosperity of its owner and helping with lighting, it was normal for it to be gilded after its carving. The movement that the pieces present inside, where the mirror would be, provides a first clue to place it in an artistic style. As for its decoration, the vegetal elements, the braces, the curved shapes contrasting with counter-curves and the scallop details refer to the clear belonging of the two examples to the Rococo, differentiating them from both the 18th century examples with a greater neoclassical influence, as well as from those of the 19th century. The asymmetry that each of the cornucopias has in its decoration refers to the beginning of this style, given that, after a time, the contrasts of this artistic style were softened by placing the decoration in markedly symmetrical compositions.

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. The silver stripe is distributed around the outside of the piece, with the corners in exposed wood and stripes in smooth silver (two on each side), and a decoration with a certain volume in which architectural elements with a clear classicist influence are combined (in the centre of which are the enamel cabochons), flanked in the more elongated areas by compositions with scrolls, volutes, plant motifs and fruits. Stylistically speaking, the work can be linked to works in the same technique made in Mexico, mainly on small chests. Also, as is usual due to the peninsular influence, it is possible to recall works such as the Holy Thursday Chest from the 17th century in Barbastro. Weight: 5.7 kg.

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.

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).
