reverse painted

The spring evenings bid farewell to the day through tender colors and serene landscapes, inspiring artisan Apolonio Alejandro Roque to create this stunning tray. Crafted in the artist's Peruvian atelier, the piece showcases a reverse-painted glass design portraying a bloom in turquoise, red and pink hues.

This beautiful tray, crafted in the time-honored tradition of reverse-painted glass, is designed by Felipe Giron in Peru. Two birds perched on a flowering branch are painted with meticulous detail on the reverse side of a glass pane. The pane is then set on the wood tray, and a gold-toned rim with handles completes the design. The painted motifs are so lovely that you might find yourself reluctant to place anything on the tray.
