Necklace with Mexican agate plaques. A necklace made with cords in different shades, which help to position and highlight the beads that compose it: flat circular discs alternate with dark spherical beads, emphasizing the lines of the former; at the front is a triangular piece, in which white and transparent areas alternate with red, yellow, white, etc. zones.

Isabeline style chair. Wood, fabric. Spain, 19th century.

Coffee set. Glazed porcelain. Royal Vienna, Austria, early 20th century. With marks on the base of pieces. Two broken cups. This glazed porcelain coffee set comprises a tray, six cups and saucers, a lidded sugar bowl, and a lidded carafe. While the classical influence is evident in the piece (gold garlands, shapes, plant motifs, colors, etc.), it's worth noting that the tray was inspired by George Sheridan Knowles' 1908 oil painting, "Summer Pleasures on the River." The term "Royal Vienna" refers to a specific style of porcelain associated with the porcelain manufactured in Vienna (Kaiserlich privilegierte Porcellain Fabrique), founded in 1718 by Claude du Paquier, an official of the Viennese imperial court. The factory closed in 1864, but its name was revived by the Augarten Vienna Porcelain Factory in 1923.
