| Description:
You are viewing a
fantastic and unique
large oval vintage Tole style hand painted tray that is signed by the
artist. The detail and color of the bouquet of burgundy to royal blue
flowers jumps right out at you. It is so beautiful that the photographs do
not do it justice. There is a lacquer finish over the hand
painting. The front portion of the metal ware tray overlaps onto the
back portion. The back of the tray is black, the front is a rich dark
brown around the edge fading to a lovely russet. Gold leaves grace the
scalloped border, the bouquet fills the center. The artist signature is in
the lower right corner "Caspacoca". The closer you look the more
detail you see, but it is also striking at a distance. This beautiful
piece of art could be displayed on the wall, propped on a plate holder on a
mantle, or placed on an ottoman and used for placing drinks, it is a designers
dream piece. This is wonderful vintage hand painted piece would add
classic beauty to any room and would add grace to the most beautiful of homes.
Condition:
The condition is
very good, a beautiful well preserved hand painted tray. A few flaws to
mention, but they do not detract from it's beauty: surface scratching, minute
bubbling to lacquer finish, scratch to gold leaf paint, minute dent to back rim,
minute chips to black paint on back rim. All of the aforementioned flaws would be normal for
a vintage piece.
