Moorish Furniture

MOORISH STYLE

After the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula in the eighth century, Islamic Spain became a cultural mix of influences that shaped both private homes and religious spaces. Moorish design was the name given to this style, which evolved through the 15th century with vibrant tile work, horseshoe arches and lavish ornamentation, most visible at sites such as Granada’s Alhambra and the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba. Moorish furniture was often similarly ornate, and featured pieces inlaid with wood, ivory and bone.

When European designers began studying Moorish art and architecture in the early 19th century, it led to a Moorish Revival. Appropriating the style’s decorative flourishes and architectural elements, it promoted a romantic view of Islamic design. Travelers could bring home a memento of what they witnessed in the Middle East, a trend that aligned with a fad for themed interiors. Men’s smoking rooms arranged with ottomans, divans and settees and inlaid tables were especially popular, as were cafés where coffee was served amid bead curtains and colorful floor mats. (Handwoven rugs are a centerpiece of Moorish interiors.) Octagonal rooms with domed ceilings were created for wealthy homes, frequently with furnishings like pipe stands, filigree plasterwork and arched doorways. The horseshoe arch is an iconic attribute of Moorish architecture that, in addition to Spain, can be found in Sicily, Morocco and elsewhere.

Several late 19th to early 20th-century movements featured Moorish touches. The American and English Aesthetic Movement, for example, borrowed liberally from global decorating styles, as seen in furniture designed by Lockwood de Forest, a New York-born artist who mixed Eastern and Western forms. The visual vocabulary of Art Nouveau also references the elegant use of geometry in Moorish design, with Milanese Art Nouveau furniture designer Carlo Bugatti drawing inspiration from the style. The Arts and Crafts movement, which prized expressive yet simple design, incorporated Moorish influences; hand-painted furniture and tile work created by William De Morgan, a British designer and potter who made furnishings for the likes of Morris & Co., were informed by techniques from Moorish Spain.

Miniature Mudejar Archway w Inlaid Frame, Inspired by the Alhambra, Spain c.1900
Located in Lisse, NL
This beautifully handcrafted wall piece pays tribute to the splendor of Andalusian architecture, echoing the intricate arches and decorative flourishes of the Alhambra in Granada. Made in early 20th-century Spain, it captures the spirit of Islamic Revival style with striking detail and artisan precision. At its center are three classic horseshoe arches, richly adorned with arabesques and supported by slender columns topped with finely worked capitals. A palette of soft reds, blues, and golds brings depth and warmth, further elevated by a rich burgundy velvet background. Surrounding the scene is a remarkable inlaid wooden frame, featuring delicate geometric patterns and flowing Arabic calligraphy — hallmarks of Neo-Mudejar design. This is not only a decorative object but a conversation piece, a rare combination of cultural history, architectural beauty, and fine craftsmanship. There are signs of restorations and some chipping to the plasterwork, mostly along the edges, but nothing that takes away from the overall beauty or structural integrity of the piece. Whether you're a lover of Islamic art, architectural miniatures, or simply looking for something rich in history and charm to add to your space, this piece brings timeless character and a story with it. A rare find with true soul. The large frame may have some minor losses and but this antique art work...

19th Century Plaster Relief Model of the Alhambra by Rafael Contreras
Located in London, GB
19th century plaster relief model of the Alhambra by Rafael Contreras Spanish, Late 19th Century Height 70cm, width 45cm, depth 7cm This exceptional plaster relief model captures the architectural splendour of the Alhambra and was crafted by the esteemed Spanish architect and artists, Rafael Contreras (1826–1890). As the official architect of the Alhambra from 1847, Contreras played a key role in restoring the historic palace. Alongside his architectural work, he meticulously produced plaster replicas of the facades he was refurbishing. The model in Mayfair Gallery’s collection showcases a beautifully detailed façade from the Alhambra in Granada. This relief, cast from a mould, highlights an elaborate arched entryway. A finely sculpted polychrome tile mosaic dado surrounds the base, while the arch itself is framed by an exquisite combination of epigraphic, geometric, and foliate ornamentation. Above, three arched windows feature delicate pierced tracery, further enhanced by intricate carved embellishments. A notable feature of this model is the richly decorated entrance inset. Adding to its historical significance, the panel bears the signature ‘Modelos de la Alhambra por Contreras’ in the lower right corner. It is housed in an elegant glazed wooden frame, complementing its refined craftsmanship. The reverse retains a fragment of the original paper label, a hallmark of Contreras’ models, which likely detailed the subject matter for travellers. Additionally, a later stamp from a picture restorer is visible. A superb example of architectural artistry, this antique plaster relief...
