New Amsterdam Mosaic, Abstract Design Set in a Silver Plated Tray.
Artist signed, handcrafted, unique, one of a kind
Stained glass and mosaics are ancient art forms. But they are contemporary, bold, decorative and functional. The mosaic is primarily composed of darker blue and green glass pieces, offset by the lighter colored glass in the center image. The silver plated rim compliments the colors, frames the mosaic and is an essential part of the art.
The stained glass is opaque and translucent. The surface of the tray under the mosaic was highly polished to reflect light as it passes through the glass, giving greater depth to the piece.
This vintage silver plated tray was manufactured by the New Amsterdam Silver Company, New York. Hence, the title of the mosaic. The company was founded in 1890, no longer in business. There are marks and minor scratches on the rim, making it distinctive, part of the patina. The relief pattern on the rim adds a sculptural element to the mosaic. .
