18th Century Spanish Carved Chestnut and Copper "Brasero" on Barley Twist Legs
About the Item
This unique, interesting fruit wood "Brasero" table was crafted in Spain, circa 1780. Round in shape, the antique table stands on four chestnut barley twist legs, and is dressed with two brass trays. The circular top has a removable brass tray dressed with intricate brass shell handles; the surface is decorated with horse and knight, numerous Fleur-de-Lis and repousse floral motifs throughout; the top is further embellished with decorative brass nailheads.
In its original use, this kind of "Brasero" table (from the French term "Brasier"), was used as a heater. Today, this kind of piece could be used as a wonderful greenery plant stand, or as a bar cart to keep drinks cold! The unusual table is in good condition commensurate with age and use, and adorns a rich walnut patina and patinated brass finish. Wood top and bottom is slightly warped (see detailed images).

- Mid-18th Century French Carved Polychrome Statue of Moses in Oak NicheLocated in Dallas, TXCrafted in France circa 1760 and resting in a carved oak niche, the figure depicts the prophet Moses, the most important prophet in Judaism and Christianity. Moses is best known from the story in the biblical Book of Exodus and Quran as the lawgiver who met God face-to-face on Mount Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments after leading his people, the Hebrews, out of bondage in Egypt and to the "promised land" of Canaan. He is represented with horns on top of his head. The horns came about because of an ambiguity of the Latin version of Exodus 34, 30. After being addressed by God on top of Mount Sinai and given the Tablets of the Law containing the Ten Commandments, Moses descended to his people in the desert. His face was seen to shine with a divine light. (The first Moses with horns was commissioned in 1505 by Pope Julius II for his tomb; it was based on a description in chapter 34 of Exodus in the Vulgate, the Latin translation of the Bible used at that time). The religious and biblical item...Category
