Tray

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Round white plate with a wide rim. The plate has two gold rope-like border lines around the inner rim. Inside the inner border line is a symmetrical floral design in pink, purple, blue, green, and yellow on either side. The center of the plate features an ornate crest with a brown bird perched on top. The crest has a black band across the top with three black stars and what appears to be a white flower on a black background below the band. The bottom half of the crest has a white background and an orange design below. The crest is surrounded by curled orange designs and more floral patterns. The plate sits on a gray surface and has a gray background. The title of this piece is "Tray" by an unknown artist.
