Diplomatic Eagle Shell Tray

Dimension:  8.25 Inches

This elegant shell tray draws inspiration from designs originally commissioned for the U.S. Diplomatic Corps, embodying timeless American heritage and refined craftsmanship. Perfect as a sophisticated table accent, a meaningful gift for distinguished colleagues, or an individual serving piece at formal gatherings, it carries the prestige of pieces displayed in the White House's diplomatic quarters and Blair House. A conversation-starting addition to any discerning home.

Highlights of the ceramics collection at Winterthur include nearly 5,000 Chinese export porcelain objects, many of them produced for the American market, as well as special-order wares once owned by famous historical figures.  An astonishingly wide array of American market and other table-, tea-, and ornamental ware helps illustrate the broad range of shapes available to the general consumer.
