vintage solid etched brass 19" geishas girl serving tray hangs on wall
23 February 2020
Description

this is very heavy 19" around wonderful etched artwork. Has wire attached with hole on both sides for hanging. I purchased about 15 years ago in Florida and can find no information. It was at an Estate sale and couple was Asian spoke very little English so I could get no information. looks like this was used at one time. In very good condition very little pitting. Maybe geisha girls (5) with wonderful flowers and etching around I tried to get close up but these do not do this justice. Any help would be great.

What does this mean?

Dear Aletha,

You have a Chinese brass tray made for export to Europe / USA. Its made first half 20th century and is very decorative. Value wise its not the best object from the period. Copper / brass objects are in most cases not very appealing the market today. I believe if it came in an auction it should make a price around the estimate.

Do you have a similar item and want to know how much it’s worth?
