Pair of candlesticks. Bronze. 19th century. Pair of bronze candlesticks with a hexagonal base followed by a circular shape that gently rises to the axis; the latter has a vase-like shape in its centre, enhanced by various mouldings; the pieces are finished off, as usual, by the lighters, tubular but with the upper edge flared outwards. Although this type of piece was basic in many European houses as early as the 17th century, it should be noted that this pair has a series of details that do not follow the most common models.

The sextant is an instrument that allows one to measure angles between two objects such as two points on a coast or a star, traditionally the Sun on Earth and the horizon. Knowing the elevation of the Sun and the time of day, one can determine the latitude at which the observer is located. This determination is made with a fair degree of precision by means of simple mathematical calculations. This instrument, which replaced the astrolabe due to its greater precision, was of great importance in maritime navigation for several centuries, including in air navigation as well, until the last decades of the 20th century, when more modern systems became popular, especially the determination of position by means of satellites. The name sextant comes from the scale of the instrument, which covers an angle of 60 degrees, or one sixth of a complete circle. Decorative item.

Modernist lamp in patinated bronze. Without shade. A circular shape that is not completely closed is the base of the piece, and the extension of this is what, after being rotated on its axis, creates the base for the lamp bulb. The abundance of curved shapes, noticeable even on the sides of the upper part (concave) is one of the main characteristics of Modernism, an artistic movement developed around 1900, also known as Art Nouveau, which aspired to renew art by taking inspiration from nature and elements and materials obtained thanks to the Industrial Revolution.

Enameled porcelain figurine. “Saleswoman with hen and eggs”. Inspired by models from the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres (France). The young woman, dressed in blue and with her hair covered with a striking red cloth, is carrying a hen and a basket of eggs. At her feet, another bird enlivens the composition, while the base, worked in relief with rocailles, provides some movement and allows the work to be related to European examples of 18th century porcelain (especially from Sèvres) together with the elegance of the forms and the detail of the painting.

Tabletop mirror frame in bronze. Inspired by Art Nouveau models (ca. 1900). Although the interior shape, very similar to a heraldic shield, links with academic prototypes, the prominence of the stems that form the outer profile of the frame, the curved lines they draw, the flowers and the interlaced finish (which is vaguely reminiscent of Celtic style) speak of influences from models derived from Art Nouveau, a characteristic style of around 1900 and also known as “Modern Style”.
