I got this tray from a local antiques and art gallery, where I have a regular show of my work, it was in two halves, handles missing and the siver gallery rail was bent and black, I made two new wooden handles for it, very carefully straightend the gallery rails, polished it all up restoring it to it's former Glory., the wood is oak and would look like this tray has gone along way, because it has a large screw head underneath that has canada on it! Anyway I finnaly decided to lightly carve into it, hope you like the results?
