Know before you buy
The tray measures 6 inches in width and 7.5 inches in length, making it a compact piece suitable for small serving tasks or decorative display.
Yes, this tray is crafted from ceramic and is intended for serving purposes. However, due to the delicate hand-painted enamel finish, we recommend using it for dry snacks or hors d'oeuvres rather than acidic or hot liquids.
To preserve the integrity of the hand-painted enamel, we recommend hand washing the tray with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals that could damage the intricate pattern.
The tray features a traditional ceramic finish that highlights the transparent enamel colors. It has a polished, smooth surface consistent with high-quality porcelain-inspired ceramics.
Absolutely. While functional for serving, its historical aesthetic makes it an excellent decorative accent. It works beautifully as a vanity tray for jewelry, a catch-all for keys, or as a standalone display piece on a bookshelf or coffee table.
