About the Item

Exuding modernist charm and functional ingenuity, this Art Deco folding tray is a stylish example of streamlined industrial design crafted in America circa 1935. Featuring a polished chrome surface paired with a striking triangular walnut handle, this piece perfectly combines sleek aesthetics with practical use, encapsulating the Machine Age's influence on mid-century design. The tray is made from polished chrome, offering both durability and a reflective surface that enhances the clean, minimalist lines characteristic of Art Deco styling. Its folding design adds versatility, allowing it to serve as both a serving tray and a compact decorative object, reflecting the era's emphasis on practicality married to form. The triangular walnut handle provides a warm, organic contrast to the glossy chrome. The handle’s geometric shape is both eye-catching and ergonomically inclined, showcasing the designers' attention to integrating functionality with bold aesthetics. The combination of materials—metal and rich-toned wood—is quintessential to mid-century Art Deco sensibilities, balancing industrial precision with natural elements. This folding tray is not just a useful object but also a sculptural work that can stand on its own as a decorative item. Perfect for serving drinks, storing small items, or enhancing interior spaces with a touch of vintage sophistication, this piece makes a statement while honoring the innovative design movement that shaped modern furniture and décor. A rare find, this tray reflects the timeless appeal of Art Deco and mid-20th-century American craftsmanship. In Excellent Vintage Condition.
