Stunning chased silver tray depicting King Solomon’s throne room in all its grandeur. Solomon seated upon the throne, frightening wild-animals on both sides of him, passive. Guards and spectators are standing dutifully in the background, and in the foreground there are two women who are voicing their defenses about the baby in between them claiming motherhood for it.

Outer rim of the tray is tastefully decorated with plantation motifs. Inner rim is designed in a wave like pattern as if the viewer is taking a glimpse through a stormy sea.

Apparently unmarked.
