Tray Description
This is a striking silver plated tray crafted by Wendell August, renowned for their hand-hammered aluminum and silver pieces. The tray features a beautifully textured, organically shaped surface with a distinctive hammered finish. A delicate floral heart design is embossed in the center, adding a touch of romantic elegance. This piece exemplifies the mid-century modern aesthetic often associated with Wendell August’s work, blending craftsmanship with artistic design.
Condition
This tray presents well, exhibiting the expected patina and minor surface wear consistent with age and use. While the silver plating remains largely intact, there are areas of light wear and possible discoloration, particularly in the recesses of the hammered texture. This piece would appeal to collectors of American silver, mid-century modern design, or those seeking a unique and decorative serving piece.
