Description from the seller
Antique Art Nouveau Copper Tray with Brass Handles – Circa 1900–1920
In excellent condition – No reserve.
A charming antique Art Nouveau tray, dating from approximately 1900–1910, featuring a warm copper-coloured surface, elegant brass handles and an intricate embossed ornamental border. The decoration consists of repeated stylised floral motifs and flowing, symmetrical patterns characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement.
The rectangular tray has a beautifully shaped, undulating rim with raised corners, giving the piece a distinctive handcrafted appearance. The contrasting copper and golden tones enhance its decorative appeal, while the polished and waxed finish brings out the richness of the metal and its attractive patina.
Art Nouveau, also known as Jugendstil, flourished around the turn of the 20th century. The movement embraced organic forms, stylised flowers and flowing ornamental lines, bringing artistic design into everyday household objects. This tray reflects that decorative tradition and makes an attractive addition to a collection of antique metalware or period interiors.
