Red, round, enamel tray with black rim, sourced in Chettinad, Tamil Nadu, South India. The Chettiars were a community of Indians (who originated from the Chettinad region) that lived and worked in Burma during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Many of this community were very successful traders and maintained their family mansions in Chettinad to celebrate festivals and weddings. Often these splendid homes were beautifully decorated and filled with fine materials like Italian marble, Venetian chandeliers, Burmese lacquerware and enamelware from Sweden, Czechoslovakia and Britain. This vibrant tray is in excellent, vintage condition.
