The present lot is an example of a Peruvian technique called enconchado, practiced by ateliers in Lima. They used a rich tortoiseshell ground as a backdrop to a complex mother of pearl inlay of flowers, arabesques and geometric designs. This type of marquetry originated in the Spanish Philippines and the prototype for these cabinets is the famous piece made as a wedding gift for the grand-daughter of the Viceroy of Peru, now in the Dallas Museum of Art (see H. Hayward, World Furniture, p.106, fig.271).See Joseph J. Rishel with Suzanne Stratton-Pruitt, The Arts in Latin America 1492-1820, pp.490-91 for a similar desk resting on a bufete, in the collection of the Museo Pedro de Osma, Lima, Peru. For similar cabinets sold at auction, see Christie's, 20th May 2008, lot 385 and Sotheby's, Important Continental Furniture, 3rd July 2007, lot 12.
