About the Item
This refined mid-century decorative tray, crafted in Brazil in the 1960s by Tropic Art, exemplifies the sculptural elegance and material richness that define the country’s modern design era. Hand-carved from solid Brazilian Rosewood (Jacarandá), the piece showcases the exceptional natural beauty of the species—deep chocolate tones interwoven with warm amber striations that flow organically along the form.
The tray’s design is both minimal and expressive: clean, elongated lines taper into soft, hand-shaped curves, while the recessed center and carved handle openings highlight the artisan’s attention to detail and precision. The silhouette feels simultaneously functional and sculptural, making it an exemplary object of Brazilian modern craftsmanship.
Expertly refinished, the surface now reveals the full depth and complexity of the wood grain, restoring its original luster while preserving its vintage character.
Perfect as a standalone decorative piece or as a functional catchall, this tray brings warmth, sophistication, and a touch of mid-century Brazilian artistry to any interior.
