Chinese Square Tea Tray - Ca 80 Years Old
This characterful square wooden tea tray dates to the mid 20th century and showcases a beautifully timeworn surface, enriched by decades of daily use. Crafted from solid timber, the tray features a gently raised moulded edge and visible plank construction, with each board contributing to its warm tonal variation and natural grain. The deep, lustrous patina—built up over years of handling—gives the piece a tactile quality and quiet authenticity.
