An exceptionally elegant antique mahogany serving or afternoon tea tray.This classic piece showcases beautifully figured mahogany wood with a rich, glossy finish that accentuates its warm timber grains.

The tray features a raised gallery lip to keep items secure and is fitted with two robust, polished brass side handles for easy carrying. The underside is fully lined with a protective crimson red felt backing, safeguarding your tabletop or ottoman from scratches.
