At the end: Dada en la dicha ciudad de Vall[doli]d a veinte i ocho dias del mes de mayo de mil y seiscientos y veinte y dos años. Executory letters of nobility were introduced during the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, the Catholic Monarchs, and continued to be produced until the 19th century. They witnessed the cleansing of the blood of the claimants and their ancestors, as well as their faith, free from any heresy. Simultaneously, they defined their coat of arms and established the right to use them. The document is developed on 91 sheets of parchment, carefully calligraphed in Gothic lettering, with the latest visas and apostilles. After the first two folios (in white), we find two large full-page miniatures (±25x218 cm), with the following representations: on the verso of the third folio the Virgin (and the beginning of the text: DON PHILIPPE), and on the front of the fourth folio, or the respective coat of arms (continued: POR LA GRACIA). The rest of the text follows, intersected by 60 triple lines (beginnings of periods) illuminated in blue and red, with gold letters. All text pages are double-framed. Very clean document, keeping the original crimson silk separator (?), between the two miniatures. Full crimson velvet binding, non-contemporary, with two silver clasps. Burgundy cloth protection box., unmarked clasps, pursuant to Decreto-Lei 120/2017, of 15 September - art. 2, no. 2, subparagraph c)
