About the Item

A rare pair of Italian trays by Alberto Forde, circa 1970, crafted in the Hollywood Regency style and echoing the sophisticated spirit of Gabriella Crespi and Christian Dior Home. Each tray combines brass framing with a beautiful aged patina, handwoven rattan cane surfaces, and acrylic protection that enhances depth and sheen. The round tray (Ø 39.5 cm, H 7 cm) features gracefully curved rattan handles, while the rectangular tray (38.5 x 26.5 cm, H 2.5 cm) bears the original Alberto Forde signature label. Together, they form a harmonious set that reflects the refined luxury of 1970s Italian design — both decorative and functional, suitable for use as serving pieces or elegant display accents. A collector’s pair, perfectly representing the intersection of natural materials, craftsmanship, and timeless glamour.
