16th Century Spanish Walnut and Boxwood Table Cabinet, Circa 1580
About the Item
An exceptional 16th Century Spanish walnut and boxwood table cabinet from Catalonia, also known as an arquilla. The fall is richly inlaid with bone, creating a decorative scene of two pedestal urns sprawling with flowers.
Crafted with precision and passion, this table cabinet showcases a seamless fusion of rich walnut wood and delicate boxwood inlays, presenting a visually stunning contrast that evokes sophistication and refinement. Each intricate detail and geometric motif is a testament to the artistic ingenuity that flourished during the Renaissance period.
The lasting influence of Muslim artists during the 16th century in Iberia can be seen through the Islamic motifs on the top and sides of the cabinet. The interior contains five drawers, all with conforming bone inlay and retaining the original key.

Cabinet-makers use ornaments such as curved fluted or plain columns, feather quills, roses or winged putti heads. High-relief carving becomes more scarce and compositions lighter. To that end cabinet-makers draw inspiration from Fontainebleau motifs filtering them and adapting them to French taste. During this period cabinet-makers turn into a kind of architects. Indeed the architectural balance of furniture is the centre of their concerns. The study of Antic formulas is then a necessity. From this care given to proportions appear refined cabinets with pure lines. This style is characteristic of the reign of Henri II and disappears soon after under the regency of Catherine de Medici (1560-1574) when an abundance of high and low-relief ornaments comes back on furnitures. This two-bodies cabinet...Category
