%X During the Viceregal period, the Mexican region of Oaxaca was a major furniture production center. Among the diverse Oaxacan works those executed in a technique specific to the mountain region commonly known as zumaque stand out. These pieces made in the Villa Alta de San Ildefonso during the 17th to 19th centuries are limited to certain types of civil furniture: writing desks, papeleras, little desks and chests for female use, coffers, little chests and boxes. This article offers the most recent and complete research on the subject and deals with the problematic terminology, the origins of this production center, the diverse construction and decorative techniques utilized and the analytic study of the wood and fillers employed. La regi¨®n mexicana de Oaxaca, durante el periodo virreinal, fue un gran centro productor de muebles.

Estas producciones realizadas en la Villa Alta de San Ildefonso, entre los siglos XVII al XIX, se limitan exclusivamente a ciertas tipolog¨ªas de muebles civiles; escritorios, papeleras, escritorillos o arquillas de estrado, arcas, arquetas y cajas.
