This miniature tray from the 1960s, crafted mainly from copper with brass accents, is an example of mid-century modern design that balances function and decorative flair. Its elongated, geometric triangular form with gently upturned edges reflects the era's fondness for clean lines and experimental shapes. The warm, reddish-copper surface has a semi-gloss finish, bearing visible patina, minor scratches, and darker spots that mark its authentic vintage character. The arched handle, made of brass and wrapped in a dark material (likely leather or faux leather), ends with a decorative brass tip—a detail evocative of 1960s craftsmanship. The construction reveals hand-finished touches and subtle irregularities in the metalwork. The overall condition is good, with natural signs of use and age but no major damage. This tray speaks with the voice of the 1960s, when modernism embraced new materials and a discreet decorative language. The copper’s warm hue recalls interiors where light played across metallic surfaces, casting shifting reflections on walls and tables. Its distinctive form and contrasting handle echo an era when even everyday objects aspired to sculptural presence—testimony to the care for detail and a passion for harmonious proportions. It could be displayed on a walnut sideboard or a low coffee table, where its geometric silhouette would complement interiors in mid-century modern, vintage, or eclectic collector’s styles. The tray pairs well with simple ceramic vessels, period glass vases, or minimalist candleholders. It may also be combined with subdued textiles to highlight the natural sheen of copper and the subtle patina. No further technical information available. Gentle cleaning with a soft, dry cloth is recommended, avoiding abrasive agents to preserve the natural metal surface and patina.
