Dated to the early 20th century, this painted wooden tray has a rectangular form raised by a simply carved footed base. The top is painted with a scholar in a courtyard setting, accompanied by a young attendant carrying a qin. The scene is enclosed by a beveled frame painted with floral scrollwork and simple meanders against a black field. Gently faded from a century of use, this small tray is a lovely example of Chinese folk artistry.

From the collection of Frances and Gary Comer.

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
