About the Item

Victorian Papier-Mâché and Mother-of-Pearl Inlaid Tray by Benetfink & Co., London England, circa 1870 A finely decorated Victorian papier-mâché tray of large oval form, richly ornamented with mother-of-pearl inlay and gilt decoration on a deep black lacquer ground. The raised central medallion is centred with stylised foliate motifs and scrolling ornament, surrounded by bands of nacreous inlay, trailing vine decoration, and delicate gilt highlights throughout. The broad border is particularly striking, with repeated mother-of-pearl leaf motifs and an interlaced outer band displaying strong iridescence. The reverse bears the impressed retailer’s mark for Benetfink & Co., 26 Cheapside, London.
