Condition Report:
This tray is in very good antique condition with a gorgeous, authentic warm patina. It shows honest signs of age and historical character, including light green verdigris tracking naturally along the seams and rim margins. There are no major dents, punctures, or structural issues. The reverse side features some residual triangular adhesive shapes where an old studio or inventory label once rested. It has been left in its original, unpolished state to preserve the historic patina, though it could be buffed to a bright shine by the buyer if desired.
