Antonio Martínez Royal Silver Factory. With marks, Martínez, Madrid Villa y Corte, 1838. Measurements: 28 x 28 x 19 cm. Weight: 1,455 g. Large incense burner in the shape of a turkey with the tail open in a fan.Made of embossed, cast and chiselled silver.The body is hinged and opens in the middle, inside there is a bowl for burning fragrant substances.The turkey rests on an oval tray with a railing, to catch the ashes that fall from the embers.Magnificent specimen that displays the mastery of the silversmith, as befits the Martínez silverware workshop. The Prado Museum, the National Museum of Decorative Arts in Madrid, and the National Museum of Romanticism, among others, have pieces from the workshop among their collections.As we read in the Catalogue of the exhibition "Lo Exquisito. Artes suntuarias del siglo XVIII del Museo de Historia" (The Exquisite. Sumptuary Arts of the 18th Century in the Museum of History): "In 1778, Antonio Martínez created a Silverware School-Workshop in Madrid, with models and machinery purchased in Paris and London during his study trip which was funded by royal patronage. After working from several locations, he finally settled on the neoclassical building on Paseo del Prado, opposite the Botanical Garden, and abandoned hand-crafted production for industrial production, which would allow them to lower the prices of their products, and therefore make them more affordable to the new bourgeoisie.The School acquired the title of Royal Factory and Fernando VII maintained activity there after the death of Martínez in 1798. The Factory stopped producing in 1869 and the building was demolished in 1920."
