Elevated with four bead and scroll feet, this beautiful tray has a hammered body with raised sides, irregular edges and rounded corners. Two magnificent gold birds with rose gold beaks and legs soar amongst the sparkling hammered backdrop and what looks like a sun or moon rising or setting behind mountains or clouds. This exotic scene is a beautiful and imaginative work of art.
