About the Item
Simple lines, a modest form, and a layer of hand-brushed lacquer give this petite Qing-dynasty tray a provincial charm that recalls the warmth of home. The original black lacquer finish has weathered with time for a wabi-sabi feel, revealing the light color and grain of the wood underneath. Today, we love using small trays like this as serving platters or catch-all dishes for jewelry, glasses, and other accessories.
