A Rare Late 16th Century Early 17th Century Walnut Bargueno

A Rare Late 16th Century Early 17th Century Walnut Bargueno

The fitted interior is superb with six rows of highly decorative drawers and cupboards with ivory/bone turned and gilded pillars. This bargueno may well be connected with the pilgrimage of St James of Compostela as the decorative studs and drawer handles depict a scallop shell which is associated with this pilgrimage. An exceptionally rare piece of furniture in exceptional condition considering it's age with few restorations. Purchased from a Chateau in South West France.
