Vintage USSR Zhostovo Hand Painted Metal Serving Tray - Green Floral Toleware Folk Art - Marked Soviet Era
This beautiful, authentic vintage serving tray showcases traditional Russian folk art via the historic Zhostovo painting technique. It features a gorgeous, dark forest green backdrop decorated with a rich, hand-painted central bouquet of vibrant multi-tiered garden flowers—including detailed full-blooming roses and smaller accent blossoms.
The outer edge is framed by an elegant, repeating gold-toned leaf border. Every brushstroke demonstrates the traditional \"two-tone\" layering style that gives Zhostovo art its signature depth and luminous quality.
Maker Marks & Authenticity:
The reverse side retains its highly collectible, original factory stamps from the Soviet Union:
Factory Logo: Stylized \"H\" factory stamp.
Price Stamp: Printed Soviet retail price \"Цена 6-00\" (Price: 6 Rubles, 00 Kopecks).
Quality Stamp: \"ОТК № 8\" (Soviet Technical Control Department Department No. 8 quality assurance stamp).
Condition Note:The tray is in very good vintage condition. The lacquer remains bright with high gloss. Expect minor vintage wear on the back side and tiny scuffs along the rim from shelf display, giving it a wonderful authentic character.
