AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful decorative oval tray in perforated nickel-plated metal and painted porcelain.

The motif features a beautiful wreath of roses and light blue bows that dominate the center, creating a light Art Deco-style decoration. It is probably airbrushed, in keeping with the early 20th century style. On the back the decoration number is handwritten.

Dimensions:

Good overall condition, small signs of wear. The tray is intact in every part.

Seller's Story

My name is Riccardo, I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artist vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and the ability of great artisans and designers who shape this so fragile material, turning a raw mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I became interested in the history of 19th- and 20th-century tableware art; today, every day, I work with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. Of my work I love that I can discover more about the objects I find as I travel around Italy, always learning something new. I always strive to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each one of them has a story to tell: the story of who created it, the story of who preserved it, and the story of who will give it a new life.
