1930 – French Art Deco tray with iron birds

This stunning French Art Deco tray from the 1930s beautifully merges functionality with artistic flair. The octagonal mirrored surface is framed by textured iron, with exquisitely detailed birds forming the handles at each end. The craftsmanship is reminiscent of Jean Gauthier's work, though the piece remains unmarked. The clever design includes hooks on one side, allowing this versatile piece to function both as a serving tray and a wall mirror.

While the mirror shows some age-appropriate wear consistent with its 90+ year journey, this only adds to its authentic vintage character. Perfect for styling on a bar cart, vanity, coffee table, or hung as a decorative mirror in an entryway or powder room. A truly exceptional Art Deco statement piece that will elevate any interior with its timeless sophistication.
