This striking rectangular tray by Vista Alegre features a pastoral hunting tableau rendered in delicate inky blue, framed by richly layered rococo borders. The scene — men mid-hunt, women at work, animals roaming — is alive with detail, yet softened by the dreamy haze of history.
Crafted in fine porcelain, the tray blends utility and ornament effortlessly: ideal as a catch-all for keys, jewellery, or writing tools, yet equally suited to display on a console or in a salon. A piece that carries both decorative charm and the quiet dignity of narrative.
Dimensions: approx. 18cm x 14cm
Condition: Excellent vintage condition
Origin: Vista Alegre, Portugal
Styling Note:
This piece adds a layer of story and sophistication wherever it's placed. Style it atop a marble or linen-covered console with a vintage brass candlestick, a stack of small books, and a single stem in a bud vase. For a quieter gesture, let it sit alone on a bedside table or writing desk — a gentle nod to ritual and rhythm. Perfect for holding your daily essentials, or nothing at all.
