Silver-Plated Rectangular Serving Tray with Scroll Engravings

Exquisite rectangular tray with softened corners, crafted from metal with a heavy silver plating. The piece stands out for its profuse burin-engraved decoration covering the entire central surface, combining rocaille motifs, acanthus leaves, and fine interlaced scrolls.

 The rim features a high-relief, molded wavy profile, complemented by two side handles cast with ergonomic floral motifs. In the center of the engraving, a smooth oval reserve stands out, originally designed for engraving initials or family crests. A piece of great character that represents the mastery of European silversmithing from the late 19th century.
