Asian Decorative Tray In Exotic Wood Inlaid With Mother-of-pearl

An elegant and spectacular oval tray crafted from precious wood, richly adorned with iridescent mother-of-pearl marquetry. The central motif depicts a scene inspired by the Far East, featuring a pavilion, figures, pagodas, and a landscaped garden, all finely executed with meticulous attention to detail. The whole is surrounded by a sumptuous floral composition enlivened by butterflies and scrolls, forming a wide decorative border. The mother-of-pearl captures the light, revealing shifting shades of green, pink, and ivory depending on the viewing angle, adding depth and elegance to the piece. The work evokes the artisanal craftsmanship of Southeast Asia, likely Vietnam, dating from the 20th century. The solid wood reverse underlines the traditional craftsmanship. A large-format decorative piece, ideal as a centerpiece, wall hanging, or as a striking element in a classic, colonial, or eclectic interior. Dimensions: 42 x 69 cm
