Handpainted Tole Ware Poppies Tray that looks like those made by Fine Arts Studio, Phila in the 1950s. Same shape, same style. The paint has a light impasto and semi-gloss. The black laquer on the tray is in very good condition with minimal bubbling and wear. Minor scratches that could be touched up with matte enamel. These look great on baker's racks and in hutches, surrounded by floral arrangements and depression glassware. Functional too, making a nice serving tray for snacks on the patio or in your summer porch. A really great metalware item. Measures 18 x 13.
