Beautiful aged Antique French Hand Painted Yellow Tole Tray, decorated with an exceptional floral bouquet with a large rose, lavender purple marguerites {daisies}, pink rosebuds, a glorious red parrot tulip and blue little country garden flowers. Painted by an accomplished artist is what makes this an heirloom tray to desire. The background is that French saffron yellow aged to a light yellow glow we love, with craquelure.
This tray has it all, age, beauty, probably lots of stories to tell. Gilt hand painted detailing around the rim. Exciting find, collectible French trays like this in this size and condition are rare, especially with such high quality painting! A charming accent piece, it is in good age-appropriate condition with wear as expected in pieces of this age. Old sticker on the back reads Aux Dames de France. Please enlarge the photos.
