Condition
This antique Italian tray is a very good gauge of silver, fine quality and in excellent presentation condition, in keeping with age and type. There are some natural fire marks to the underside and minor surface blemishes to the surface of the tray, as to be expected with such an original example. The applied decoration is all sharp. The Italian hallmarks struck to the underside of the tray, in multiple groups to the rim and underside of the handles are all very clear.
