Vintage Towle Old English Tray Silver Plate Tray with Ornate, Damask Design
Vintage Towle Old English Tray Silver Plate Tray with Ornate, Damask Design
This vintage silver plate tray was made by Towle. The pattern “Old English”, with an ornate edge of flowers and an etched damask design in the center, was originally designed for flatware in the 1890s. This tray is from the mid twentieth century.
I have chosen not to clean or polish this item. I love the beauty of the aged finish and patina and will leave it up to the buyer to clean and polish.
