Saint Anthony with the Child Jesus. Wood. Mechelen School, 16th century. A carved wooden sculpture, worked, as was customary in that center, on the front because it was intended to be placed on an altar, depicting Saint Anthony of Padua with the Christ Child seated on a book, in one of the most common iconographies for this Franciscan saint. The influence of the Mechelen school is evident in the figures' features, the remnants of polychromy, and other aspects. The "poupées malinoises" or "Malines dolls" are small sculptures of saints made in the late 15th and early 16th centuries in the workshops of Mechelen (Flanders). They were known by these names because their faces resembled those of dolls or "poupins." They were sometimes also called "chop sculptures" because they were only finished on the front, being flat on the back, depending on the depth of the niche where they were to be placed. They were made for small domestic altarpieces—usually containing three statuettes or "dolls"—rectangular in shape, with painted wings or doors. Perhaps the best-known example is the altarpiece in the Mayer van den Bergh Museum in Antwerp.

Pair of cornucopias. Carved and gilded wood. 18th century. Pair of carved and gilded wooden cornucopias decorated with a fine molding on the inside and an elaborate composition of plant elements with scallop-like shapes on the outside, leaving empty spaces and with a marked asymmetry in both, tempered by carving both examples with the same decoration. These types of mirrors were only made for grand houses, as their primary purpose was to reflect the light from candles and lamps in these luxurious interiors, thus showcasing the wealth of their owners. The method of manufacturing mirrors from sheets of glass was discovered in Venice in the 16th century and remained a secret for about a century, until the role of mercury in the process became known in London and Paris, allowing for the widespread use of these materials. However, the use of cornucopias did not become widespread in Europe until the Rococo period, and their use and creation have continued ever since. From the beginning, and with the intention of displaying the owner's wealth and aiding in illumination, it was customary to gild them after they were carved. The movement of the pieces inside, where the mirror would have been, provides an initial clue to their artistic style. As for their decoration, the vegetal elements, the volutes, the curved forms contrasting with counter-curves, and the scallop-shell details clearly indicate that both pieces belong to the Rococo period, distinguishing them from both the more Neoclassical-influenced 18th-century examples and those of the 19th century. The asymmetry in the decoration of each cornucopia points to the beginnings of this style, since, over time, the contrasts characteristic of this artistic style were softened, resulting in more symmetrical compositions.

A ceiling lamp composed of a central axis from which arms emerge, each ending in a colored glass shade resembling a flower and other decorative elements—a clear neoclassical touch—and topped with a partially openwork form.

Wardrobe. Walnut wood. 19th century. A two-section wardrobe made of carved walnut wood in its natural color, featuring three lockable doors at the top, a central open space, and two drawers and two doors with metal handles at the bottom. The exterior displays a series of carvings (architectural elements, coats of arms, plant motifs, vases, bands, plain moldings, etc.) of classical influence, as well as elements reminiscent of traditional Spanish cabinetmaking ("parchment scrolls" on the upper doors, reminiscent of Gothic tradition, pearls, etc.). The 19th century was a time in European cabinetmaking when a range of influences and styles blended to create new pieces rooted in tradition. This example features Renaissance-inspired reliefs (vases, moldings, etc.) and other details of medieval influence (scrolls, etc.), along with a composition (door arrangement and central space) very typical of that century.

Two-door wardrobe. Walnut wood. Spain, 18th century. A two-section wardrobe made of carved walnut wood features doors (two pairs, top and bottom) and drawers (four, arranged in pairs towards the center) and is slightly raised on disc-shaped legs. The upper section is finished with a series of moldings of varying widths (the widest with small fluted brackets, elements also present flanking the drawers); the doors (with simple marquetry in lighter wood) and drawers are also highlighted by similar moldings; the corners of the door areas are accentuated by Solomonic columns with plain capitals; below, above the legs, another, finer molding frame completes the piece. The sides feature simple recessed carvings that differentiate the various sections mentioned. The careful consideration of the composition and its details (and therefore the quality) is evident in the wood joints, in the care with which the elements are used (the door hinges are left out to add more decoration), etc. The presence of Solomonic columns and the delicate use of fluted corbels placed opposite each other to add a sense of movement demonstrate the Baroque influence on the cabinet. The overall lines of the piece correspond to a common composition in Spain (compare with wastepaper baskets, the 18th-century sacristy cabinet of Burgos Cathedral, etc.), and the wood is also the most common type used in Spanish cabinetmaking. Compare this piece with the architrave in the Lázaro Galdiano Museum in Madrid (first half of the 17th century, note the corbels); the well-known paneled cabinets; pieces in the Louis XIII style (noting the usual differences); etc.
