An eight-sided serving tray in deep maroon and gold, finished with scrolled handles at each end. A circular rosette sits at the centre inside a foliate scroll panel, framed by nested borders of nelum-petal and wave motifs. The piece shows how a functional object is planned as a symmetrical composition working outwards from a single centre point.

Treat it the way you would a worked example in mathematics. Look at how the composition is arranged, where the focal point sits and how light and shade describe the form - then set up your own version rather than copying this one.
