Persian Isfahan Solid Silver Tray
Located in Los Angeles, CA
A mid 20th century Persian Isfahan solid silver wall plaque or tray of rectangular form. This is a stunning piece of artwork. The tray also features the artist's name, which adds a personal touch and showcases their craftsmanship. One of the most captivating aspects of this tray is its hand-chased decoration depicting Achaemenid figures and winged sphinxes. The Achaemenid Empire was an ancient Persian civilization that existed from the 6th to 4th century BCE, famous for its architectural marvels such as the city of Persepolis. The presence of Achaemenid figures on the tray suggests a tribute to this rich historical era. The winged sphinxes, on the other hand, add a touch of intrigue and mysticism to the design.

The hand-chased technique used to create the decoration on the tray involves hammering and shaping the metal surface, creating intricate patterns and designs. This meticulous craftsmanship gives the tray a sense of uniqueness and exclusivity, as each detail is carefully shaped by the artist's skilled hands. Overall, the combination of the Achaemenid figures and winged sphinxes on this Isfahan silver tray...
