For sale we have this extremely high quality antique Damascus tray. The tray is made from a very thick gauge of brass. It has been inlaid magnificently with silver and copper inlay. The tray dates from early 1900's. It is very high quality and also very heavy for its size. When you pick it up, the first thing you will notice is that it is very heavy for its size. The silver and copper inlay has been beautifully completed to a very high standard. Some breathtaking calligraphy along with Islamic patterns and motifs all over the tray. The hand chasing to the brass background adds a beautiful extra dimension to the tray. I particularly love the silver inlay over the areas of copper inlay over the brass. This has been done in the cartouches with the Arabic script in them. A very difficult skill has been masterfully completed by the maker of this tray.Size
The diameter of the tray is 34.5m = 13.6 inches. The tray weighs 1.56kg.
The tray is in excellent overall condition.
