A unique hammered tray, naïvely handcrafted from brass in England, circa 1950.

This charming and highly individual object was carefully made by hand, perhaps as a gift for a friend or family member.

Likely intended as an ashtray, the square dish features a stylised horse worked in repoussé at its centre. The surrounding brass has been extensively hand-hammered, creating a richly textured surface that gives the simple image depth and definition.

This unique handmade object functions perfectly as a vide-poche; a charming place for keys, coins and other small objects.
