‘60s Kyes Moire Glaze teal enamel & brass tray

Mid-century memento. The handmade tray is 8.75 x 13.25 (not counting the brass Greek-key patterned handles, which each extend about an inch from the end). The original label for the Pasadena, Calif., maker known for these trays is intact. The tray is in middling condition for its age: The color is vivid, but the gold/brass paint is rubbed off along the long sides and there are some light scratches in the enamel on the hammered metal. Still, the tray evokes the story of mid-century Southern California.
