A twisted brass-colored wire is bound around the outer edge of the rim and around the foot, fixed in place with small round-head pins. The lacquer is heavily worn, with deep red showing through darker, crazed and rubbed areas, which gives the surface a strong aged look. The tray sits on a raised, lobed foot. It suits a console, sideboard, shelf or coffee table as a display piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBackground\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLobed red lacquer trays are a traditional form in East Asian lacquerware.
