Lemongrass-colored sewing kit. The sewing box, with a hinged lid and a drawer, is situated on cabriole legs joined with an X-shaped chambray. Inside, it has three compartments and a mirror. The fronts are decorated with stylised plant shapes, inspired by the decorations of classic European furniture. The legs follow characteristic Rococo patterns; lemongrass wood was often used for inlay work, whereas in this example its colour is used throughout the surface except for the darker decoration, a colour combination reminiscent of examples such as Boulle-style marquetry. The layout of the spaces inside makes this piece of furniture perfect for interior decoration.

Box with metal marquetry. Wood, metal. Possibly French school, 19th century. It has damage. It requires restoration.

Miniature friar's chair. Wood, leather, metal. Spanish school, 19th century. Armchair with arms and high backrest of the type known as a friar's chair, which has chambranes on the legs joining the back with the front and middle chambranes or crossbars at the front with carved plant and architectural elements. The legs have a plant carving that extends along the arms, in the scrolls of the fronts. The back and seat have a leather upholstery (the back is embossed with plant elements), metal studs and textile fringe. The friar's chair, 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. Being such a deep-rooted tradition in Spain, this type of model was never stopped being created.
