This elegant octagonal serving tray originates from Canada and is crafted in silver plate (metal blanc), featuring a refined Art Deco silhouette. The faceted geometry and calm, architectural lines give the tray a timeless presence that sits beautifully within both modern and classic interiors.
Stamped Metal Blanc with a maple leaf — a hallmark associated with North American production of the period — the tray reflects solid craftsmanship and understated design.
The surface shows a soft, natural patina with light signs of age and use, enhancing its character and authenticity. Ideal as a serving tray, bar tray, or as a decorative base for glassware, candles, or curated objects.
A quiet yet striking piece — functional and sculptural in equal measure.
