A Large Late 19th Century Circular Aesthetic Movement Parquetry Tray

This most impressive large scale 19th century aesthetic movement tray has been very skillfully made. It is of a large circular form with a raised edge which has been constructed with block sections of ash and turned on a lathe forming the pleasing curved and raised gallery which is finished with a band of ebony veneer on its top edge. The surface of the tray is decorated with a very complicated geometric design made from hundreds of delicately cut veneer sections which have been individually glued into place to form the stylised flower pattern in exotic timbers such as satinwood, tulipwood, and stained boxwood. This impressive work of art would be very pleasing to use as intended but also display well on a wall or as a centre piece on a table. It is in very good condition with a rich colour and a natural patination.

English, circa 1900

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.
