⚜️ Large Florentine Wooden Tray • Hand-Carved • Turquoise & Gold

An absolute dream for lovers of authentic brocante and shabby chic style!

This beautiful, original serving tray comes from Italy (circa 1950s/1960s) and is a testament to genuine, traditional craftsmanship. Unlike later mass-produced items, this piece impresses with its palpable quality and soul.

✨ Key features at a glance:

• Genuine craftsmanship: The magnificent baroque ornaments are masterfully carved directly into the lightweight solid wood (fine intarsia technique) – no applied plaster decorations!
• Elegant interplay of colors: The tray impresses with its clear, two-tone design: The matte, deep petrol blue and the warm gold harmonize perfectly. The petrol blue brings an elegant depth to the design, while the gold creates a cozy vintage shimmer. Together on the genuine wood, the tray has an incredibly strong character – colorful, yet wonderfully understated and inviting thanks to the matte patina.
• Perfect patina: The tray is in beautiful, age-appropriate vintage condition. The small, charming dents and the distinctive aging of the wood tell a decades-old story and make it a true one-of-a-kind piece.

🌿 Care instructions for your Florentine tray:

As this piece is a genuine vintage original made of solid wood and hand-painted, it requires a little love when caring for it:

• Cleaning: Please never hold it under running water or soak it in the sink! Simply wipe the tray with a slightly damp, soft cloth if necessary and dry it thoroughly immediately.
• No chemicals: Do not use harsh household cleaners, abrasive creams, or solvent-based cleaning products, as these could damage the historic gold and petrol blue paint.
• Protection from moisture: To avoid water rings or stains on the old wood, it is best to place damp glasses or vases on the tray with a small coaster.
• Strictly forbidden: The dishwasher and microwave are, of course, absolutely forbidden for this brocante treasure.
