Sourced directly from a weekend Brocante we visited our last trip Paris, this magnificent French crystal tray is the epitome of timeless elegance. Measuring approximately 15" in diameter, this stunning piece showcases the masterful artistry of French crystal craftsmanship.
Design Details
The true showstopper is the deeply embossed camelia motif – rendered in various stages of bloom across the surface – creating a dimensional garden that catches and refracts light beautifully. The design evokes the refined aesthetic of Chanel, with that unmistakable Parisian sophistication that never goes out of style.
Key Features:

Approximately 15" diameter – perfect for serving or display
Reversible design with 1" gallery edge embossed on both sides
Deeply carved camelia flowers in multiple stages of bloom
Art Deco influences with classic French panache
Versatile styling – use either side depending on your aesthetic

Styling & Use
