This 1920 Art Deco Venetian mirror tray is shaped from mirrored glass, glass, chrome and metal with a silver colour. The rectangular tray displays cut corners, bevelled borders and tubular silver-tone handles at each end alongside small feet beneath. The central glass surface is decorated with an etched floral motif and shows a foxed condition across the reflective backing. Measuring 7 cm high, 43 cm wide and 25 cm deep, the tray stands upon a dark wooden surface. Placed in a home today, it functions as a decorative accessory atop a sideboard, dressing table or serving surface for small items.

FAQs

Art Deco Venetian mirror trays combine the geometric forms of the early 20th-century Art Deco movement with traditional Italian glass-working techniques, typically featuring surface etching, bevelled edges, and integrated metal or glass handles.

These trays are constructed using silvered plate glass, reverse-etched paneling, and supporting substrates made of timber or composition board, often accented with chromium-plated or brass handle fittings.

Authentic period examples generally display hand-etched floral or geometric motifs, early silvering methods that show natural age-related foxing or oxidisation, and heavy gauge plate glass with hand-cut bevels.

A mirrored tray functions well on a sideboard or coffee table to organize barware, perfume bottles, or decorative glassware, reflecting ambient light to accentuate surrounding objects.

Clean the top glass surface with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth slightly dampened with water or mild glass cleaner, avoiding excessive moisture near the edges to prevent damage to the underlying mirror backing.
