Description
This is a beautifully preserved vintage serving tray from Abercrombie & Fitch featuring the celebrated racehorse Eclipse after the iconic painting by George Stubbs. Crafted in England, this sophisticated tray combines classic sporting art with timeless English club-room elegance.
Unlike many similar examples made from metal, this tray is constructed of wood with a glossy black lacquered finish and subtle gilt-toned edging, giving it a warmer and far more refined presence. The recessed brass-toned handles and richly framed equestrian print evoke the atmosphere of a traditional gentleman's library, hunting lodge, or upscale tack room.
The artwork depicts the legendary 18th-century thoroughbred Eclipse, one of the most famous racehorses in British history, rendered in the unmistakable style of George Stubbs. The composition has a stately, collected look that works beautifully in traditional, English Regency, Ralph Lauren, or sporting interiors
With light wear consistent with careful display and minimal use, The lacquer retains a rich shine, and the colors remain warm and inviting. A wonderful decorative serving piece for cocktails, barware styling, library decor, or equestrian collections.
Abercrombie and Fitch is considered a luxury curator sourcing high quality trays such as this one from England.
