SPANISH COLONIAL STYLE

After the conquest of Mexico in 1521 and the Philippines in 1565, Spain dictated a global culture. The colonization of territories in the Americas, Western Europe, Africa, Oceania and the Pacific imposed the values of Spain, including Catholicism, while the extraction of resources reinforced the empire’s wealth and power. Unlike many styles that came out of European colonialism, such as British Colonial, Spanish Colonial furniture and architecture frequently mixed local heritage with the artistic traditions of Spain.

Spanish Colonial furniture was informed by the shifting styles of Europe as well as Indigenous culture. There were Inca tapestries depicting Spanish coats of arms and Baroque chairs adorned with tropical flora. The butaca, a low easy chair popular in the Caribbean, was inspired by Rococo’s curving forms and the shape of precolonial seating. In New Mexico, Pueblo artisans carved chests with patterns reminiscent of Anasazi art.

Even within the homes of the wealthy, furniture was usually restricted to necessities like benches, desks, cupboards and chests. These were often ornately designed and especially important for storing prized goods like textiles. Spanish Colonial houses were built with adobe and clay and tended to be minimally decorated, so the style’s heavily carved wooden furniture pieces stood out against a home’s white stucco walls.

The Spanish Colonial period mostly came to an end after the territories achieved independence from Spain. However, its aesthetics continued to influence Southwestern style and Spanish Colonial Revival style after Spanish Colonial style was used extensively at San Diego’s 1915 Panama-California Exposition.

Iron Floral Candelabra by Jan Barboglio
Iron Floral Candelabra by Jan Barboglio

Iron Floral Candelabra by Jan Barboglio

Located in Los Angeles, CA

A earlier retired Iron floral candelabra by Jan Barboglio titled "Passion flower Candelabra" After many years designing clothing with her sister in their Barboglio Cristina & Jan Collection, Jan Barboglio began sculpting accessories and furniture for her own home. Her childhood, spent in north central Mexico, would prove to be fertile ground for inspiration, and every object created by her would carry with it the rich history and romance of old Mexico. Barboglio’s initial designs of wax grabbers were for her silver, bronze and iron candelabra. Altar pieces and house blessing crosses were integrated into her own home furnishings. Her love of entertainment would later result in her own iron chargers, platters and chafing dishes...

Pair, Antique Spanish Colonial Style Iron Prickets

Located in Atlanta, GA

This pair of Spanish Colonial-style iron prickets, dating from the early 20th century or possibly 19th century, is a striking example of hand-forged craftsmanship from a bygone era. Crafted in the tradition of Spanish Colonial metalwork, these prickets feature a central stem adorned with four meticulously hand-forged roundels, which ascend in a graceful, rhythmic pattern. The prickets rest upon three elegantly splayed feet, further exemplifying the organic yet functional design characteristic of Spanish Colonial aesthetics. The distressed, rusted surface of each pricket tells the story of centuries of use and exposure, enhancing their historical and visual appeal. The patina, developed over time, lends these prickets a timeless quality that underscores their authenticity and age, evoking the rustic charm and enduring beauty of early Colonial furniture...

Vintage Dorothy Thorpe Lucite Candlesticks, a Pair

By Dorothy Thorpe

Located in Farmington Hills, MI

We are very pleased to offer a modern pair of candlesticks by Dorothy Thorpe, circa the 1970s. These eye-catching sculptural candlesticks are crafted from beautiful Lucite and twisted for a structural display piece that is sure to make a statement. A stainless-steel finish collar at the end draws the eye, with or without candlelight. They hold standard size taper candles. A beautiful example of Thorpe’s work, this set of taper holders turns a dining table, mantel, or console table into a perfectly appointed display. Stainless steel is clean and polished, a few inclusions on both pieces consistent with age and wear of Lucite; overall, in good vintage condition and ready to be used for years to come.
