Tin Copper Tea Tray Handmade Forging Chaozhou Antique Style Classic Chinese Master Artwork Teapot Holder Tea Boat

I've bought a number of trays from this seller and they have always exceeded my expectations. This one is no different. Some highlights: - simple, elegant design, without too many decorations - brass accents add a touch of class - the tray is low and wide as opposed to high and narrow (like most tin trays) - the tin is relatively thin, so care must be taken when handling the tray. The surface and shape can easily be bent - in my photo, I lightly sanded the top surface to speed up the patina process. I've also added some dimples to the surface, as the tin is easily moldable. Overall I'm very satisfied. The tray is fragile but still heavy, as are most tin items. I think over time, it will develop a very nice patina.

Generally, the item is a good quality, however handmade items are always imperfect.However I love the design of the piece.
