Bring the art and mystery of Ancient Rome into your home with the Lady Clare Pompeii Serving Tray, inspired by the remarkable artistic heritage of Pompeii, Italy.
Located near the Bay of Naples beneath Mount Vesuvius, Pompeii was a thriving Roman city until the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79 buried the city beneath volcanic material. Its remarkable preservation has provided an extraordinary window into Roman life, architecture and decorative art nearly two thousand years ago.
The villas and homes of Pompeii were richly decorated with frescoes depicting mythology, landscapes, architectural scenes, still lifes and elaborate ornamental motifs. Lady Clare’s Pompeii Traditional Collection draws inspiration from this fascinating artistic legacy, bringing the elegance and character of the ancient Roman world into the modern home.
The classical Pompeii artwork is beautifully framed by an elegant hand-gilded border, creating a decorative serving piece with the appearance of a framed work of ancient art.
Since 1932, Lady Clare has been known for creating fine English lacquered placemats, coasters, trays and decorative home accessories. The Pompeii Tray combines inspiration from ancient Italy with traditional British craftsmanship.
Available in two useful sizes, the tray is ideal for serving afternoon tea, coffee, cocktails, drinks or light refreshments. Its distinctive artwork also makes it beautiful enough to leave on display when not in use.
The generous Traditional Tray, measuring approximately 21.5 × 15.5 inches, provides ample room for entertaining and serving. The more compact Small Tray, measuring approximately 15.5 × 12 inches, is ideal for tea, coffee, cocktails or smaller servings.
With its sophisticated classical imagery, the Pompeii Tray complements a wide variety of interiors, from a traditional library or English Country House to an Italian-inspired kitchen, study or elegant contemporary home.
It also makes a distinctive gift for an Italy lover, Ancient Rome enthusiast, archaeologist, historian, classical art lover or traveler fascinated by Pompeii and Italian history.
Pair it with coordinating Lady Clare Pompeii Placemats, Tablemats and Coasters to create an elegant collection celebrating one of Italy’s most fascinating archaeological treasures.
