Lenox Jasmine Large Oblong Serving Tray. Large cream colored reticulated serving dish. Measures 14 1/2" by 8 1/2" and stands 2" in height. Excellent condition.
This stunning large oblong serving dish by Lenox belongs to the sought-after Jasmine collection, a testament to mid-century American fine china craftsmanship. The tray is rendered in the iconic Lenox ivory-toned porcelain, featuring an exquisite reticulated (pierced) lattice design along the shorter ends. Encircling the inner rim is an intricate embossed floral motif of jasmine vines and blossoms set against a textured, sand-pitted background, providing a beautiful tactile contrast to the high-gloss, smooth center well.
The elongated silhouette and architectural details reflect an Art Deco influence reimagined for the modern home. While originally designed for grand dinner service, this substantial piece is a perfect candidate for a Dark Academia centerpiece, perhaps holding leather-bound journals or a collection of vintage curiosities. Its expansive size makes it equally functional for serving or as a sophisticated base for a seasonal mantle display. In excellent condition, the porcelain retains its luminous sheen and structural integrity, making it a timeless addition to any collection of fine ceramics.
