Early 19th Century Burmese Lacquered Offering Tray

About the Item

Materials and Technique: These trays were traditionally made from bamboo or wood and coated with layers of lacquer, a process known as "Pan-Yun." Lacquerware is a distinctive and revered art form in Burmese culture. The lacquer was often derived from the sap of the Thit-si tree and mixed with natural pigments to achieve vibrant colors. Religious and Cultural Significance: Offering trays like these were commonly used in religious ceremonies, particularly in Buddhist rituals, where they held symbolic offerings such as fruits, flowers, or other items. The act of presenting offerings is a significant aspect of Buddhist practice, representing generosity, respect, and devotion. Aging and Patina: The patina and wear on an early 19th-century Burmese lacquer offering tray can add to its allure. Over time, these pieces develop a rich patina that bears witness to the history, rituals, and cultural use they have undergone.
