Vintage William Morris Acanthus Serving Tray
Decorating this product is 'Acanthus' a large-scale, repeat pattern wallpaper created in 1875 by one of England’s best known textile designers, William Morris. Acanthus was published in two color combinations - one in shades of green and the other in mostly reddish-brown tones and was printed for Morris' company by the London firm Jeffrey & Co., a specialist in high quality 'Art' wallpapers. It required thirty wood blocks to print the full repeat that artfully used fifteen different colors - more than any previous design by Morris. Acanthus was an expensive wallpaper to produce and so it was pricey when it entered the marketplace. The success of the production of Acanthus would pave the way for comparable designs like: Pimpernel (1876), Wreath (1876), Rose (1877) and Chrysanthemum (1877).

This Create With Photos tray exceeded my expectations. I had ordered an acrylic tray previously that I didn't like, but this one is excellent quality. It's sturdy and has some nice weight to it. The tray surface has a glossy finish that seems like it will stand up to real use. I only wish there was a white version of this tray. The printing is wonderfully clear and crisp. I also love the high gloss finish.

This is a well made, sturdy wooden tray with a flawless black finish and lovely map on the tray surface. It is both vintage & modern at the same time. Looks exactly like the photo; does not disappoint. So nice to find something of quality individually made and not the mass-produced 'shabby chic' merchandise seen in stores. I am so pleased to be able to give this to my college-age niece for her birthday. This can be used as a tray to hold jewelry or toiletries, or hung on the wall as art. The map surface is sealed (it is slightly shiny) so would be moisture resistant. It is well worth the asking price but I was able to apply a sale code as well. Very happy with my purchase. Map is crisp & clear and sealed with a water-resitant finish.

I purchased this reindeer serving tray for myself and I love the size, the functionality, the great quality of the tray itself, the cute, colorful design, and the printing was spot on! Can't wait for Christmas to take it out again! No problems at all with my order, just love this tray! Just as you see online, colorful and fun design, the printing is fabulous. I have uploaded photos to see for yourself. Great purchase!
