We want to know how they lived, what was their standard of life, in what conditions they worked and what was their familiar background. We have analyzed a total of 20 post-mortem inventories of cabinet-makers, from 1780 to 1784 and from 1790 to 1794, stored at the Archivo Histórico de Protocolos de Barcelona (AHPB).
