Graceful in form and deeply practical, this is a tray that moves effortlessly through the home - bearing a jug of flowers on a side table, holding glassware at a drinks moment, anchoring a kitchen vignette, or simply displayed on a shelf as a beautiful object in its own right, and for serving fromage and charcuterie. Marked on the base by the French maker REX. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eListing is for one tray.

The scalloped border draws directly from earlier rococo silverware forms, reinterpreted here with the refined restraint of early 20th century French design. REX was among the French makers producing quality silver-plated wares in this period, their pieces made for the bourgeois French table and built to last generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProvenance\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFrance, early 20th Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLovely Condition - Gently aged with minor imperfections consistent with age and use.
