Accurate Description of Item
One 19th Century Persian Silver Wash Tray
Appraiser Remarks
Silver washed Brass and copper trays like this have been made for the Tourist market in India, eastern Europe,South East Asia and the Middle East since the Turn of the 19th Century. Many of them came with a folding wooden stand for use as a low table. Most we see today were purchased in street bazaars between World Wars One and Two (1918-1939) and brought back as souvenirs. Similar trays are still in production, so values tend to be modest for all but the most unique and large examples.
