19th Century Papier-Mache Tray on Later Stand Japanned This is to be expectedA very attractive 19th Century papier mache tray on later faux bamboo stand. The shaped edge has a beautifully painted floral design with mother of pearl inlay and is supported by a faux bamboo stand with cross stretchers.
