19th Century Papier Mache Tray on Stand

19th century
Description

A Very Attractive Mid 19th Century Oblong Papier

Mache Tray Having Elegant Hand Painted And

Gilded Floral Decoration Housed On Later

Square Tapered Leg Stand

(What better way to look after the environment than to

recycle beautiful, old, antique objects with little purpose

in the modern world and give them a new purpose. Thats

exactly what’s happened to this pretty little Papier Mache

tray. It is now a very attractive and very functional coffee table

or even just side table, with the added bonus that the tray is

still removable and can therefore be used as an actual tray as

and when required.

This particular tray is a good size and largely in excellent

condition with just the old marks, scratches, scuffs and

dents to be expected in an object of this age which has been

well used throughout the years)

Circa 1850

Height - 18.5in

Width - 30in

Depth 22.5in

Declaration

S and S Timms Antiques Ltd has dated this Papier Mache Tray Table to the Victorian era.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, papier-mache tray tables feature a decorative tray crafted from pressed paper pulp or layered sheets, lacquered and mounted onto a wooden base or stand.

Nineteenth-century artisans pressed glued paper sheets over moulds, which were baked, oiled, and lacquered multiple times before being decorated with gilt paint, mother-of-pearl inlay, or hand-painted floral motifs.

Authentic period pieces display subtle surface wear, hand-applied gilding with fine craquelure, and a dense, solid construction that feels remarkably sturdy compared to modern reproductions.

Position this item as an occasional table beside an armchair or sofa to introduce rich dark lacquered tones and historical texture to a modern room scheme.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, moisture, and heat, dusting gently with a dry, soft microfiber cloth without using liquid polish or solvent cleaners.
