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. Rich with character, the square tray is finished with a layer of black lacquer, gently aged with a soft sheen and smooth patina. The underside of the tray is brushed with a large character in red paint, likely the surname of the original owner. Today, we love using small trays like this as serving platters or catch-all dishes for jewelry, glasses, and other accessories.
