Friar's chair. Walnut wood, textile. Spain, 17th century. A high-backed armchair of the type known as a "frailero" (friar's chair), featuring fabric upholstery with studs on the seat and back, low-profile stretchers connecting the front and rear legs, and smooth stretchers or side rails joining the two front and two rear legs, and simple armrests (curved, ending in scrolls). Originally of Italian origin, the frailero armchair became one of the most common pieces of Spanish furniture after its introduction in the 16th century, being characteristic of that century and the 17th, and experiencing a revival in the historicist movement of the 19th century. Because it was such a deeply rooted tradition in Spain, this type of chair continued to be produced throughout the years.

Chest. Wood, leather, iron. Spanish School, circa 1700. A rectangular wooden chest with a curved lid, covered in leather on the exterior, with fittings, handles, tacks, and two front closures. It has a front and top opening. Inside, there is a lower compartment accessible from the front, divided in two by a vertical wooden panel. The lid and part of the chest are lined with fabric. The back is not leathered. The round-headed nails are arranged in geometric patterns. The handles are decorated with discs. The fittings, also ornate, follow designs based on architectural motifs, which are also present on the lock shields on the front. Some of the metal elements still show traces of gilding. These types of trunks were known as "travel trunks" because they were typically used to store belongings on journeys, hence the leather covering and the apparent lack of decoration on the exterior. The two locks provided added security, as both keys had to be combined to open the trunk, and these keys were usually entrusted to two different people. Compare this to the 17th-century travel trunk from the Viceroyalty of Peru in the Museum of the Americas (Madrid), which features animal and plant motifs (embossed leather). Or compare it to the 17th-century chest of the Mayorazgo de la Cerda estate in the National Museum of Decorative Arts (Madrid).
