In the frame there are inserts of fake tortoise lucite, It was a popular material choice in the 1970s due to its modern appearance. The tray features a rectangular surface made of smoked glass and mirrored glass. Smoked glass is characterized by its dark, translucent color, which adds an element of sophistication and mystery to the design. The tray has geometric elements in its design, square handles and linear brass accents. The Brass and Smoked Glass create a sophisticated and elegant appearance that was characteristic of the era.
