Celebrate the heritage and artistry of British fly fishing with the Lady Clare Classic Salmon Flies Tray. Featuring an exquisitely detailed classic salmon fly against a rich Oxford Blue background, this elegant English lacquered tray is finished with a traditional hand-gilded frame.
Classic salmon flies have their origins in the Victorian era, when salmon fishing developed into both a sophisticated sport and an art form. Skilled fly tiers created increasingly elaborate flies using carefully selected feathers, silks and other materials, producing intricate patterns intended to attract Atlantic salmon.
Over time, these beautifully constructed flies became admired for far more than their practical purpose. Today, traditional salmon flies are regarded as miniature works of sporting art and are prized by anglers, fly tiers and collectors throughout the world.
Lady Clare’s Classic Salmon Flies Collection celebrates this fascinating British sporting tradition. The richly detailed fly artwork is beautifully complemented by the deep Oxford Blue background, while the hand-gilded frame gives the tray the refined appearance associated with classic English interiors.
Since 1932, Lady Clare has been known for creating fine English lacquered tableware and decorative home accessories. Made in Great Britain, the Classic Salmon Flies Tray combines traditional British sporting imagery with the craftsmanship and elegant styling for which Lady Clare is renowned.
Available in two sizes, the tray is as practical as it is decorative. The larger Traditional Tray is ideal for serving cocktails, drinks or afternoon tea, while the Small Tray is perfect for serving a drink, carrying smaller items or displaying decorative objects.
A felt base helps protect the furniture beneath, making the tray equally at home on a dining table, coffee table, drinks table, desk or sideboard.
The sporting design makes this tray particularly attractive in a country house, fishing lodge, lakeside cabin, library, study or sporting retreat. It would also make a distinctive addition to a home bar or gentleman's study.
The Lady Clare Classic Salmon Flies Tray makes an exceptional gift for a fly fisherman, salmon angler, fly-tier, sporting enthusiast or collector of traditional British sporting art.
Pair it with coordinating Lady Clare Classic Salmon Flies Placemats, Tablemats and Coasters to create a handsome collection inspired by the heritage of British salmon fishing.
