Abelardo Lafuente & Rafael Silvestre

The only description discovered was the one written by the Mexican architect, Rafael Silvestre, to Abelardo Lafuente in one of his letters, describing it as follows:
"The stall has changed remarkably. I'm not boasting, but it looks very nice and, above all, original. I spent a very small amount, but it looks like an investment as large as any other. I decorated the top of the display cases with 16-inch pieces of black glass and several 10-inch mirrors, separated by a half-inch molding that ties the combination of glass together. This molding is painted gold with a lilac background, which, in short, looks charming, as the color is very eye-catching."
