Ferns glass tray

Ferns glass tray

$50.00Price
Underlying this tray, courtesy of a charming botanical illustration, is a diverse selection of turn-of-the-century fern specimens. Varying in form, the tray is tied together by the subtle shading of cool greens and earthy browns that seemingly flow through the plants. Please, marvel at how the "Christmas-Fern" looks remarkably like a "Christmas-Tree."
     In the potichomania process, the glass acts as both a foundation and protective finish, saving the step of varnishing. The original intent was to recreate Greek and Etruscan vases by simulating rare and expensive Sevrés porcelain.

  • Details

    This tray measures approximately 5x8 inches. The relative thinness of the tray – just over 1/8” thick – belies the complexity of the potichomania process. Each of our trays is comprised of a glass tray, three layers of 28# paper, four coatings of varnish, and finished with two coats, each of paint and clear acrylic spray. We’ve added a high-quality felt pad on the bottom in order to protect your home surfaces.


    Care: Please spray with a gentle glass cleanser and wipe clean. Do not submerge in water. For decorative purposes only.
