Crafted with precision and passion, this table cabinet showcases a seamless fusion of rich walnut wood and delicate boxwood inlays, presenting a visually stunning contrast that evokes sophistication and refinement. Each intricate detail and geometric motif is a testament to the artistic ingenuity that flourished during the Renaissance period.
The lasting influence of Muslim artists during the 16th century in Iberia can be seen through the Islamic motifs on the top and sides of the cabinet. The interior contains five drawers, all with conforming bone inlay and retaining the original key.
