Vintage Tea or Serving Tray Jungerhans Rotterdam- Original Tags- Wood / Enamel

This is a wonderful high quality tea or serving tray from the Netherlands. The original tags show it was from the high end department store Anton Jungerhans in Rotterdam. My father was in Europe during and after WWII and he brought back a number of art pieces and very nice items. I'm not sure if this is enameled porcelain or maybe copper but it is heavy and just oozes class and European quality. Around 15 inches by 9 inches and the wood which appears to be oak has a wonderful warm patina.

There are wear and use marks but no major damage. The gilding is a bit worn but the piece glows with character. I just love this tray and my mother used it as a perfume vanity tray along with formal functions at the house when I was growing up in the 1960s. I've had it in a china cabinet for years now and very seldom use it anymore. It needs a loving new home and I'm sure it won't disappoint and last another couple centuries or more.

I have no one to pass things down to and the casket I'm building to take stuff with me to the afterlife doesn't have room for this. This is a nice piece to enhance any function or affair or vanity in your home. Looks great with a tea set , covered with perfume bottles or you could roll up some joints on it. A bottle of single malt scotch and a bag of cheese puffs was on it the last time I used it. Made me look like I knew what I was doing in life , not some bum and troublemaker using plastic trays like I did before I grew up........ Even though it's been a couple months I did finally grow up , better late than never. And thank you for the visit......
