Chinese Square Tea Tray - Ca 80 Years Old Finish - Blue Lacquer 162 x 50 x 85This characterful square wooden tea tray dates to the mid 20th century and showcases a beautifully timeworn surface, enriched by decades of daily use. Crafted from solid timber, the tray features a gently raised moulded edge and visible plank construction, with each board contributing to its warm tonal variation and natural grain. The deep, lustrous patinabuilt up over years of handlinggives the piece a tactile quality and quiet authenticity.
