Please Note
I am an antique and vintage seller. All vintage and antique items have flaws. That is the nature and charm of aged and well-loved decor. If you are looking for pristine new decor, please do not purchase vintage or antique items from my shop. Everything I carry will show signs of age, use, and history. Please look closely at all photographs and read the description carefully before purchasing.

Vintage handled tray by Forman Bros, marked Chromium Plate.

This charming pierced tray features a delicate openwork border and elegant swing handle. Pieces like this were originally used for serving bon bons or candies but today they make a beautiful jewelry tray, vanity display, or romantic décor accent.

The reflective silver finish and ornate pierced gallery give it a timeless look that works beautifully in cottagecore, French country, romantic, or vintage-inspired interiors.

Perfect for:
• rings and earrings
• vanity or dresser styling
• bridal accessories
• perfume display
• small serving tray

The small size makes it especially lovely as a ring holder or bedside jewelry tray.

Details:

• Maker: Forman Bros
• Marked: Chromium Plate
• Size: approx 7 in x 5.5 in
• Material: chromium plated metal
• Era: circa 1930s–1950s

Condition:

Good vintage condition with light age wear and surface marks consistent with age. The finish still presents beautifully and reflects light nicely.

A lovely little vintage piece that adds instant charm to a vanity, dresser, or romantic vignette.

NOTE: Aged silver—whether sterling, silver plate, or silver over copper or brass—naturally develops character over time. Tarnish, a darkening caused by oxidation, is a normal and expected part of this process and is intentionally not polished away, as many collectors value the depth and authenticity it adds. You may also see gentle wear where the silver has thinned to reveal underlying metals, along with small age spots or surface variations. These are not flaws, but rather honest signs of age that reflect the piece’s history and contribute to its unique appeal.Antique and vintage item condition
Please remember that vintage and antique items have lived full lives before reaching your home. Signs of age such as light scratches, surface wear, patina, minor discoloration, tiny flea bites, manufacturing irregularities, age-related fading, crazing, tarnish, or other imperfections are common and should be expected with previously owned pieces. I do my absolute best to carefully inspect, photograph, and describe each item honestly and thoroughly; however, due to the nature of vintage and antique goods, there may occasionally be minor signs of wear, imperfections, repairs, or age-related characteristics that are overlooked or not immediately visible during inspection. These characteristics are considered part of the charm, authenticity, and history of vintage and antique items and are not typically considered defects. Please review all photos carefully and feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase, as all sales are based on the understanding that these pieces are pre-owned and will naturally show evidence of age and use over time. I do not refund based on "this wasn't what I expected". My pictures are very clear and obvious. The only thing you might not be able to discern without an in-person inspection might be color as that can be different from one monitor to another. However, I explain the colors very clearly and that should never be cause for a return.

Aged Metals
Aged metals—including sterling silver, silver plate, brass, and copper—naturally develop character over time. Silver will tarnish (a normal oxidation process), while brass and copper may darken, dull, or develop patina and verdigris. I do not polish these finishes, as many collectors value the depth, warmth, and authenticity they bring. You may also see light wear, including areas where silver plate has thinned to reveal underlying metal, along with age spots, surface variations, or minor discoloration. These are not defects, but expected signs of age that reflect the history and unique character of each piece. I do not accept returns because something was not polished or has rust or other logical conditions for aged pieces. My pictures are very clear.
