Cabinets & ‘Salting’ Chamber

This chamber has several types of cabinets, which are pieces of furniture with very specific characteristics, which are associated with safes and writing desks, where the most important personal possessions, such as jewelry, gold and the most valuable documents were kept. They were initially rested on any table or platform, but later they were combined with a specific table created to support them.

One may also see an exceptional Salting rug, a representative of the technical quality of Islamic art of the 16th and 17th centuries (silk web and weft, high density of wool knots, bright colors and religious inscriptions in metal thread).
