About the Item

The relief of folded cloths was common in the Gothic furniture, coming from Flanders in the 15th century and used in Spain in a common way well into the 16th century, although 17th century examples are preserved that maintain this decorative element. As for wood, although walnut is common in Spanish furniture, it is not unusual to find examples carved in pine wood. Gothic arches can now be found in several prominent museums: the National Archaeological Museum of Madrid preserves four Gothic arches from the 15th century (with Gothic architectural decoration and other carved elements); the Lázaro Galdiano Museum has an Italian example of the 15th century with work of skylights and arches reminding the cloths of Muslim diamonds (Inventory 2141); the Museum of Navarre has a wedding ark of wood and embossed and polychrome leather of the last third of the 15th century (inventory CE000115); etc. The National Museum of Decorative Arts has an oak wood sideboard (CE01616) decorated with panels "carved" or "parchment", dated circa 1500, and an ark with similar decoration dated between 1476 and 1525 (CE19287)." Size: 189 x 62 x 90 cms.
