Provincial Chinese Farm Tray, c. 1900
About the Item
This wooden farm tray from northern China charms with its rustic finish and asymmetrical form. Hand-carved from a single block of wood, the large tray is truly one-of-a-kind, shaped with curved edges, tapered sides, and a deep interior basin. Years of use have rounded the corners and imparted a well-worn, wabi sabi texture. Originally used for food prep in a provincial farm or kitchen, the tray brings natural textures to contemporary interiors as a catch-all or serving platter.
