This is auction is for a butterfly serving tray. It is a bit different from others I have researched, in that it has an inlayed photo depicting the giant statue of Jesus which stands in the city of Rio de Janeiro . I acquired it from a relative who was on a tour of duty in the US Navy. The tray dates back to 1923 and is very good condition except for a few minor scratches on the back As you can see from the photos, the butterfly wings seem to have an almost irridescent quality to them which seem to radiate light from within the tray. I added enlarged photos so you could get a good feeling for the beauty of this piece. (See photos below) Specific Info: The length across measures at 19âe and 11 1/2âe in height. The design is covered in with a pane of glass. The tag on the back reads, âeoeCarlos Zipperer Sobr. (Sobrinho) R.Bar.Rio Branco, 1923 âe" S. Bento do Sul âe" S Cat. âe" Industria Brasileiraâe. I prefer payments made through PayPal or money order and I will only ship to destinations within the US . Feel free to ask me any questions you may have regarding the vase. Thank you for stopping by, and Good Luck bidding!! I recently discovered that the number on the back of the tray refers to the numbers on the street; that all brazilian trays do not have a date for when they were made. This would mean that the tray was not created
