Spanish Table, Walnut, Baroque, 17th Century

About the Item

Walnut wood, with wrought iron fasteners and one piece board. Baroque style lira leg table, entirely made of walnut, with carved profile legs and rectangular one-piece board with smooth profile. The legs have a mixtilíneo cut, based on incoming and outgoing of great dynamism and decorative sense, claroscurista even in spite of lack of carving, that speak us of the own taste of Baroque Europe. Thus, we see complex paths that combine simple curves, edges and steps, creating shapes that are both regular and symmetrical in the Baroque classicism. The legs are attached to the board through curved iron fasteners, typical of this typology. The tables of paw of lyre have their origin in the Spain of Carlos II, during second half of century XVII. The simplest ones present a simple cut in the lateral legs, becoming completely carved in the models of peripheral centres. The fact that the board is smooth, unadorned, responds to the fact that the tables were dressed in rich fabrics, which fell to hide virtually the entire table. Thus, in the less wealthy houses, which could not afford to dress luxuriously the tables, the decoration should be centred on the legs, and hence they would fit. Inspired by the tables of classical antiquity (marble and with transverse supports), they have two lateral supports that can be dismantled to transport the furniture, which may have a lira or vase profile." Size: 192 x 102 x 84 cms.
