On a Regency mahogany and parcel-gilt stand. One of a pair. The cabinet is of 'architectural' form. The upper part has pediments and drawers, and has a central cupboard which encloses a fitted interior with an arcaded alcove. The pediments are surmounted by classical figures and putti, who stand flanked by female figures, with summer and autumn attributes. The cabinet is inset with panels of lapis lazuuli, agate, quartz, and various Roman marbles. The pilasters are formed of four gilt bronze standing figures, with gilt bronze capitals with rams heads, on plinths supported by four gilt bronze crowned eagles. The stand is on lion paw feet, and has a moulded top and gadrooned edge above a central frieze, with Greek key decoration, above two parcel gilt caryatid supports with floral drop swags. On the back panel is a central plaque, with a female mask, centrered by gilt wood sun rays.

These grand examples were acquired in Rome in 1739 by Henry, 4th Earl of Carlisle (1698–1758) and his son, Charles, Viscount Morpeth (1719–1741). They were installed at Castle Howard, North Yorkshire, where they remained until 2015. The stands combine female supporters called caryatids, Apollo mask and sunburst motifs, and friezes of the Greek key pattern. They reflect the taste popularized by the influential early 18th-century designer William Kent and are probably ‘the carved gilt frames’ that were commissioned for the cabinets when they first arrived at Castle Howard. These cabinets (this is a pair with M.13 & A-2016) were made in Rome in the mid-1620s, Previously thought to have been made for a member of the Borghese family, it is now thought much more likely that these cabinets were made for a member of the D’Este family, Dukes of Modena and Ferrara. The crowned eagles which can be seen supporting the bases come from the family’s coat of arms. Made by a variety of highly-skilled craftsmen, the form of the cabinets is after that of contemporary Roman church architecture. Panels of valuable hardstones, including blue lapis lazuli are set into the ebony frame, a technique known as pietre dure. The structure is further embellished with gilt-bronze statuettes and mounts. reference term-106607 adlib-term-106607 61babb74-f8fd-3e53-abf6-c2c2f5dd351b 17th Century, Early reference term-106498
