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

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 moldings at the top and bottom, and fittings (handles on the sides and lock shield) cut out forming vegetal and geometric elements. It is necessary to highlight the presence of a “space” inside, on one side, with a lock closure and an exterior decoration in iron that preserves polychrome (like some of the other hardware in the piece), and presents a drawing of volutes and plant elements with a certain Renaissance memory and marked classicist influence."
