Deep-Walled Butler's Gallery Tray - Antique Late 19th Century - EPBM

The pierced vertical rim is intended to keep items like glassware, decanters, or tea sets from sliding off during transport. The internal flat surface features an intricate, hand-chased foliage, scrollwork, and floral flourishes surrounding a central vacant space (a cartouche where family crests or monograms were traditionally engraved).
Lovely fluted, low-profile integral handles and small ornamental bun feet raise the heavy base slightly off table surfaces to prevent scratches and condensation damage.

Approximate size: 15" x 10" x 5.5".
