18th century ponderal weight. Bronze. Incomplete bronze ponderal, with the container vessel and two of the smaller ones, all cold decorated with incised and stamped motifs, simple edges on the small vessels and more complex borders on the container vessel. Nested cup weights are a set of cup-shaped weights that fit precisely inside each other. A complete set is one that retains all its original cups. The largest, called the keeper, consists of an upper lid with a handle and a closure, and weighs exactly the same as the sum of all the others. The second in descending order weighs half as much as the keeper, and the same as the sum of the rest. This proportionality is maintained until the last weight, called the disk or last piece, which is usually solid and closes the set. This principle remained unchanged until the introduction of the decimal metric system.

Quaking glass or wine-tasting glass. Silver. 18th century. One handle is missing. A vessel known as a catavinos or tembladera (as it has no foot) made of silver in its colour with a flat handle curved in the shape of an “S” decorated with simplified plant elements, and a line of mortise-shaped pieces (gallon-shaped shapes) on the edge enhanced by a smooth band. Towards the inside it has strings of pearls and dots, and a cross on the bottom. Bernegales and mortise-shaped pieces were frequent in Spanish silverware in the 17th century, usually being relegated to centres of somewhat less importance in the 18th century. Compare with pieces such as the silver bernegal from the last third of the 17th century in the Lázaro Galdiano Museum (perhaps from the Portuguese school; inventory 3916), or the one dated between 1640 and 1665 from the same museum (inventory 3910), or the one by José Jiménez de Illescas (inventory 3915, dated 1715-1725) in the same institution.

Peace-bearer. Bronze. 16th century. Bronze peace-holder with an asymmetrical “S” handle on the back, which features a slightly raised decoration on the front framed in an architectural composition decorated with elements of classical influence (a scallop shell at the top, plant elements in the upper area, columns with decorated shafts, architrave, base with semicircular arches, etc.), which has a heraldic shield in the centre of the lower area. Under a winged angel's head, the central theme of the peace-holder is presented: Lamentation over the body of the dead Christ, with the cross in the background, Mary with Christ, flanked by two figures. The heraldic shield is very similar to that of the House of Mendoza used by Íñigo López de Mendoza y de la Vega, 1st Marquis of Santillana, and progenitor and head of the Ducal House of Infantado (which also features it).

Monk's armchair. Walnut wood, textile. Spain, 17th century. Armchair with arms and high backrest of the type known as “friar” upholstered in red and yellow fabric, with fringes on the seat and the lower part of the backrest. The carved decoration of plant elements and grooves is focused on the ends of the backrest and on the front of the piece of furniture; the openwork chambrana between the front legs shows simple geometric shapes and curved details around a carved mask. The friar armchair, originally of Italian origin, became one of the most common pieces of Spanish furniture since its introduction in the 16th century, being characteristic of this and the 17th century and being recovered again in the historicist movement of the 19th century.
