Excellent 16" Large Art Deco aluminum & brass Lurelle Guild Kensington platter

This fabulous Art Deco 1930s polished aluminum and brass tray was designed by famed industrial designer Lurelle Guild in 1934 for Kensington Inc. The Kensington Ware line was introduced in 1934 by Alcoa as high-end aluminum alloy giftware and domestic items. It was marketed as having the same advantages of silver, pewter and chrome but none of the disadvantages. It did not tarnish or stain. Wonderful, classic piece for the vintage or art deco home! Polished metals are difficult to photograph, but as aluminum is a soft metal, this piece has picked up some scratches here and there. They're not very noticeable in person, and I've done my best to show any marks. There are no dents. Dimensions: 16" diameter. The feet are 1" tall.
