Beautiful & Fine Georgian Era Tray W/ Chinese Gold Thread Embroidery

About the Item

This exquisite Georgian-era tray features a stunning panel of intricate Chinese gold thread embroidery, creating a luxurious and captivating centerpiece. The rich, finely woven embroidery showcases elaborate Chinese precious object and significant motifs, with shimmering gold threads adding depth and brilliance to the design. The tray itself is crafted with a fine wooden frame, likely mahogany or a similar hardwood, enhancing the elegance of the embroidered panel. and accented by well cast brass handles. This piece perfectly exemplifies the refined taste of the Georgian period, blending European craftsmanship with the exotic allure of Chinese textile art. Historical Significance: During the Georgian era (1714–1830), there was a strong fascination with the decorative arts of the East, particularly Chinese textiles, which were highly prized by European collectors. The use of Chinese embroidery in European decorative items, such as this tray, reflects the influence of the Chinoiserie style that flourished in the 18th and early 19th centuries. This tray would have likely been used as a luxurious decorative piece, showcasing the owner’s taste for fine and exotic art.
