The bargueno<\/em> is one of the major contribution from Spain to European furniture. Elegant cabinet adopting the structure of a chest mounted here on its original stand. Also called Vargueno<\/em> from the city of Varga, near Toledo, which was the main production centre. The bargueno<\/em> was the conquistadore<\/em> and missionary\u2019s favourite item of furniture to carry his administrative, diplomatic or personal belongings to the New World.<\/span><\/p>\n

The bargueno<\/em><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The facade and lateral sides are adorned with beautiful wrought open-worked iron ornaments against a red silk background. The panels are assembled with dovetail joints and the facade is fitted sideways, locked by a double hasp keyhole. Wrought iron handles are positioned on the lateral sides of the bargueno<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once opened the flap stands on two bars with scallop finials and reveals fourteen drawers and and two architectural door-leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n

The upper register presents four drawers. The knobs are shaped as scallops evoking the movable chests used by pilgrims en route to Santiago de Compostella.<\/span><\/p>\n

The middle register opens with two door-leaves and two drawers showing cross motifs flanking two superimposed drawers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The lower register is centred by a drawer flanked on each side with two superimposed drawers presenting the same decor as the other registers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The drawers present a geometric bone inlaid decor while the door-leaves uses the architectural vocabulary with pointed arch scrolls and four bone twisted columns framing the padlock.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the astounding quality of the motifs and the diversity of the figures this bargueno<\/em> is truly an exceptionnal piece.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The base<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

The walnut H-shaped base stands on scroll feet. Four fluted balustre columns frame a double twisted column. An arched spacer with a geometric and vegetal decor links both legs.<\/span><\/p>\n

This cabinet, nowadays very rare, is a piece of furniture typically Spanish and has never been developped in any other country. Item of great value the bargueno<\/em> was both a luxury piece exposed in state rooms and a functional travel chest as expressed by the handles and impressive lock.<\/span><\/p>\n
