A classic Reed & Barton silverplate serving tray from their "Salem" hollowware line, featuring a rectangular form with gently stepped rim, dense Rococo-revival scroll and floral engraving across the well, and a pair of hammered scroll-form cutout handles. Reed & Barton is one of America's most storied silversmiths (est. 1824, Taunton, MA), and this tray carries their quality and design pedigree in a versatile serving size — ideal for a buffet, bar cart, or as a decorative catch-all tray.
