Description
Pair of rectangular lacquered wood trays, stackable, with integrated side handles. The dark frame frames a top decorated with pastoral scenes in the Toile de Jouy style, in shades of blue on a light background, inspired by 18th-century French iconography.
Functional yet highly decorative objects, typical of vintage production from the 1970s–1980s, a period in which classicism was reinterpreted with an ironic and graphic touch for home furnishings. Perfect as serving trays or as accent pieces on tables or console tables.
