Silver Pax, Manuel Aguilar and Diego De La Vega, Córdoba, Spain, 1816
By Manuel de Aguilar
Located in Madrid, ES
Portapaz. Silver in its color. Manuel Aguilar and Diego de la Vega, Córdoba, 1816. With contrast marks. Portapaz made of silver in its color with an architectural distribution of a pedestal with garlands and a shield with a Latin cross in the center, a central body with two pilasters with an Ionic capital and scrolls on the sides of a relief, and a top finish with architectural elements, scrolls and vegetal motifs, all of strong classicist influence. The relief mentioned is an Immaculate Conception, located on a crescent moon; in this area are the contrast marks. The altarpiece composition of the piece was common in the examples of the 19th century, and it is necessary to highlight the lack of Rococo influence it presents. Compare, for example, with the pair of portapaces from the Parroquia de San Lorenzo (Córdoba, Spain) dated between 1816 and 1826 with a punch from Manuel Aguilar Guerrero and “… / VEGA” (instead of the Virgin, one presents a Sal Lorenzo ). Likewise, other works are conserved:adapter for silver basin...

Crown, Silver with Hallmarks, Cordoba, Spain, 1827
By Francisco de Paula Martos
Located in Madrid, ES
Contrast Diego de la Vega y Torres; silversmith Francisco de Paula Martos (Córdoba, 1775-1850). Crown made of silver in its color, with smooth ring, basket with circular mirrors surrounded by "ces" and accompanied by leaves and flowers alternating with plant compositions topped by a bouquet of flowers; four bands or imperial sinuous profiles decorated with a string of pearls in light relief with a flower towards the centre, composition flanked by smooth "ces" with interspersed positions (facing and curved outwards); Around it, there is the usual burst of profile flanked by a band with flowers inside, a circular mirror in the centre surrounded by flowers and leaves and topped with a cross with powers, and a growing line towards the centre of stepped powers. This type of pieces were common in fraternities and churches, often commissioned with a processional purpose and to enhance a religious image (usually the Virgin Mary). This example shows a very lively combination of lines, something that was common in the Rococo silverware...

Antique and Vintage Collectibles and Curiosities for Sale

Antique and vintage collectibles and curiosities can bring whimsy and wonder to any interior. 

Decorating with old scientific instruments, historical memorabilia and vintage musical instruments, as well as other authentic collectibles and curiosities that can be found on 1stDibs, presents an opportunity to create a unique, natural history museum-like atmosphere in your home that can provoke conversation as often as it pays tribute to how far we’ve come in understanding our world. 

And bringing collectibles and curiosities into your space is actually on trend — Wunderkammern, or curiosity cabinets, were all the rage in Europe during the 1500s and continued to have adherents there and in the U.S. in the following centuries. Today, however, they’re experiencing a real surge in popularity and influencing how many interior designers are furnishing and decorating homes — combining contemporary with antique, scientific with tribal, earthly with extraterrestrial, Les Lalanne tables with Flemish tapestries.

The original Wunderkammern were entire rooms filled with objects demonstrating their owners’ worldly knowledge: A proper one included artificiala or preciosa (objets d’art); naturalia (such as skeletons, shells, minerals); exotica (taxidermy or dried plants); and scientifica (scientific instruments), frequently alongside religious relics and ancient artifacts.

Pay tribute to a history of rich and diverse musical traditions that have taken shape all over the world by decorating your home with a collection of antique and vintage musical instruments — with a little help from strong hanging wire or some wall hooks, vintage brass instruments such as a gong, French horn or trumpet can help elevate a home office or complement the efforts you’ve made to ensure a welcoming vibe in your home’s entryway. Bells or antique wind instruments can add provocative metallic contrasts to dark woods as tabletop decorative objects.  

Create an intriguing focal point with Georgian scientific instruments, such as stick barometers with mahogany cases or lacquered brass telescopes. These items stem from an era named for the monarchies of the four King Georges, who ruled England in succession starting in 1714 (plus King William’s reign, which lasted until 1837). Just as there was beautiful jewelry produced during the period that today is coveted by collectors, there is much to be found in the collectibles and curiosities realm too.

Wanderlust, nostalgia and a shared love of good design are contributing factors to certain trends in decorating — just as vintage trunks and luggage have reappeared as furniture or home accents in a bedroom or foyer, decorating with globes, maps or nautical objects is similarly rooted in the allure of travel and a penchant for the stylish finishing touch that collectibles bring to our homes.

Find a wide range of antique and vintage collectibles and curiosities on 1stDibs.
