AN OVAL HUANGHUALI TRAY
17th–18th Century
for the scholar’s desk, made of a solid piece of well-figured timber, the thick low sides with rolled-out lip over a concave moulding.
10 1⁄4 x 3⁄4 x 6 1⁄4 in. (26 x 2 x 16 cm)
At some point in the history of this tray a long split in the timber was stabilized by a skilled carpenter using two flush wooden patches which now show an aged, matching patina.
