These lightweight “Alcohol Proof – Made in Japan” trays were popular mid-century decorative pieces, designed for bar carts, coffee tables, vanities, and hospitality service.

The floral pattern reflects the influence of Italian Florentine design—lush small flowers, trailing vines, and stylized botanical borders—yet produced in Japan in the 1950s–1960s using lacquered paper-mâché or pressed board. The subtle patina and gentle wear along the edges are consistent with vintage Japanese trays and add to its authentic charm.

Ideal as a catch-all, bar tray, vanity display, or layered décor accent. Lightweight, colorful, and full of mid-century personality.

Age: Mid-20th century (likely 1950s–60s)
