This small tray is unmarked but all indications are that it is quite early. It has a ruffled edge with pink highlights along the edges and gold in the corners. I’ve not seen another piece like it.

It is made of porcelain (translucent) and is 8 3/4″ long x 7″ wide x 1 3/8″ high. The surface is somewhat rough and there are slight inconsistencies in the execution which indicate it is handmade. It has an extra diamond shaped support in the middle of the bottom to prevent it from sagging in the kiln.

There is wear on the gold and there is a chip on the base rim (last picture) but the condition is generally excellent especially considering it is about 200 years old.

Re shipping. When you check out you will be quoted a price for the shipping based on your address and the estimated physical size and weight of the package.

All items destined to any country outside of Canada (including USA) will have tariffs applied (percentage of the item’s value depending on the country of origin) and brokerage fees (approx $2).

Items destined to the USA require a label or mark stating the country of origin – in many cases vintage items aren’t marked and I may have to physically attach such a label myself.

I use Chit Chats, a Canadian shipping company that shops around for the best rates from both public and private sources worldwide.

All items are packed carefully and securely. I use recycled materials wherever possible. Most shipments are insured.

I will combine shipping on multiple purchases whenever appropriate in order to save you money. I will refund the saving when the items are shipped.

If you live or work in the vicinity of Whitby, Ontario, you can pick up your purchase and save the shipping charges. You could also drop by and view the items we’ve listed in person. See address below.
