"Originally all lacquerware items were made of wood and then dipped or painted with lacquer from the sap of trees. Today, almost all Japanese dishes are made of molded plastic and then painted with lacquer for the plastic holds up better due to the daily use of dishes."
#ML-1 Pair of Lacquerware Molded Trays
Vintage Lacquerware trays that are molded with an upward ¾" curved edge. The trays are 6 1/8" by 5 1/8th'". They appear to have a hand painted picture but it may be a decal that has been sealed with lacquer. One is of an elegant looking dog which may be a greyhound. The other one looks like a sheep. The pictures look oriental and have different types of plants on a red background. They would complement any décor as table top accessories or could be hung on the wall. There are no hooks on the backs but the glue on type hooks could be applied for that purpose. They look old but not worn. They are unmarked, have no flaws, and are in Very Good Condition.
