Drum desk with display case. Wood, glass, metal. A tall wooden cabinet with a lower section featuring two doors and a drawer, a drum desk in the center (two compartments above two drawers, a central area with a door, and decorative architectural elements and curves), and a display cabinet with two doors at the top.

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.

Ewer with basin. Glazed porcelain. Moritz Zdekauer, Altrohlau, Czech Republic, late 19th century. With markings on the base. A set of ewer and tray decorated with bands of floral motifs in vibrant shades of blue, red, and gold. The center of the ewer features a female figure, a motif found in many of the factory's pieces and hand-painted, which may have been created by an artist named Asti. The tray displays two other tondos with female portraits, in the same style. The marks on the base identify the piece as a work made at the Moritz Zdekauer factory in Altrohlau (now in the Czech Republic, but formerly part of the Habsburg Empire). It operated between 1884 and 1909, changing its brand to MZ Altrolau from that date onward, continuing its work until 1945. After World War II, it was nationalized and continued under the name Starorolsky Porcelan Moritz Zdekauer.

Chapel of the Immaculate Conception. Sculpture, carved wood, glass, metal. Second half of the 18th century. A carved wooden chapel with vase-shaped decoration at the top of the railing and balusters, reminiscent of the Baroque style, features three of its four sides in clear glass and is raised slightly on circular legs. Inside, a gilded background (on the fourth side of the chapel, highlighting a carved and polychrome vegetal composition) and a polychrome sculpture of the Immaculate Conception surrounded by alternating flat, undulating, pointed, and circular rays of light are visible. The sculpture stands on a pedestal and wears a white tunic and a blue mantle; Mary stands on the Orb of Creation, in which a serpent (associated with Sin) appears. The sculpture shows a clear influence of Spanish Baroque models, as well as certain details, such as the pose, that can be linked to Neoclassicism. This blending and the persistence of Baroque influence are common in 18th-century Spanish sculpture.
