ABOUT PRODUCTID 35440
This set of two minimalist trays, marked Gerling and produced in Germany in the 1960s, exemplifies the functional aesthetics of the mid-century modern era. Each tray features a rectangular silhouette with softly rounded corners and gently raised rims. Crafted from oak wood combined with synthetic material, the trays offer both durability and a lightweight feel, accentuated by a rich, glossy lacquer finish. A warm, medium brown tone with a subtle reddish hue highlights the pronounced wood grain, while slightly darker edges create a refined frame effect. The set remains in good original condition, showing a gentle patina and minor scratches typical of its age. The trays have been refreshed, with no visible repairs or structural damage. The listed price refers to a set of two pieces. These trays echo the narrative of German modernism from the mid-20th century, when simplicity and material quality prevailed over ornamentation. Their unadorned form reflects a pursuit of function and everyday convenience, resonating with the optimistic spirit of the 1960s. The glossy finish and wood grain seem to evoke gatherings around the table, where each detail was thoughtfully considered. The Gerling trays can be used both as practical serving accessories or as decorative elements on a table or sideboard. They are well-suited for mid-century modern, minimalist, or eclectic interiors—pair them with simple ceramics, colored glass, or metal candlesticks. On a wooden surface, their sheen highlights the material’s depth, while neutral textiles nearby enhance the sense of harmony. Each tray measures: height 2 cm, width 41 cm, depth 30.5 cm. Materials: oak wood and plastic. Set weight: 0.60 kg. The trays have been refreshed and preserved in their original form, with only minor signs of use visible.
