MON-FRI shipping only SEE PICS FOR MEASUREMENTS ***We love reasonable offers!*** This heavy 4 plus pound vintage silver plated footed butler tray features an ornate design with chased scrolling foliage and rocaille borders. The handle is 24 inches long and 10 inches wide, making it a sturdy and stylish piece for serving or displaying items. Crafted in the United States post-1940, this tray embodies the Victorian style with its intricate detailing and elegant design, perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to any space. Manufacturing Context: During the post-WWII booming era of formal home entertaining (the 1940s through the 1960s), American and English manufacturers mass-produced these heavy, grand-scale silver-plated items for bridal registries and formal dining rooms. Chased Scrolling Foliage: The surface features heavily stylized ivy, acanthus leaves, and sweeping "C-scrolls". Technically, this is achieved by chasing (pushing the metal down with tools to form a recessed pattern) or machine-stamping, which mimics the hand-engraving of the 1700s. Rocaille Borders: The outer edge features an asymmetrical, undulating border decorated with scallop shells and floral clusters, typical of Victorian interpretation of French Rococo style.
