Pair of mirrors. Carved and polychrome wood. Spanish School, 17th century. Pair of wall mirrors, each with a rectangular frame and a prominent frame made of carved, polychrome, and gilded wood. These elements are arranged symmetrically, divided into two areas: a thin band with leaves on the inside and a wider one on the outside, with scrolls, acanthus leaves, volutes on the outside, protrusions on the sides, a finial at the bottom, and a helmet-shaped crown, more heraldic than royal due to its details. This one has also been decorated with lines of pearls and an elaborate composition based on simplified plant motifs on a dark background, recalling the bluing common on this type of piece when they were made of metal and royal. One of the helmets faces right, the other left. This crest features a neck guard and a single-piece neck guard, a lowered visor ending in a point, a nape of the neck (which would have been used to accommodate a crest or crest), and, despite not having a wreath, its features are what separate it from royal closed helmets, helms, bascinet, and snouts. Compare, for example, with the Italian cuirassier helmet...
