Antique English Copper Tray by Hugh Wallis with Etched Floral Motif, c.1880

This antique English copper tray is an extraordinary example of Arts and Crafts design by the renowned Hugh Wallis, a celebrated British metalworker of the late 19th century. Handcrafted circa 1880, it features a delicately etched floral motif to the center and an etched border encircling the entire tray. The surface carries his signature lightly hammered finish, a subtle detail that adds depth and character. Marked with Wallis’s initials at one end, this tray is both a collectible work of art and a testament to his mastery of copper craftsmanship.

Part of our Coppermill Kitchen antique copper collection, this heirloom-quality tray blends artistry with function, making it perfect for display or service. Style it on a sideboard layered with candlesticks, use it as a serving tray for drinks, or hang it as wall décor to highlight its rare etched design. To care, wipe clean with a soft cloth and polish occasionally with a gentle copper cream if you wish to maintain its gleam. Otherwise, allow the copper to naturally age with patina for an authentic vintage copperware look that collectors admire.
