Blue Willow Pattern Porcelain Tray with Brass Handles on Black Lacquer Table with Gilt details
Many years ago I saw a Blue Willow tray table at a trade show. I just loved it, but I didn’t think of buying it. It wasn’t even actually for sale, it was part of the display.
But since then I’ve run across them a few times. I really love them. And they can be had.
