Mini Melchior Trays – From Flea Market Curiosity to Vintage Treasure
I found these five little trays at a flea market near Riga. They were lying in a wooden box, almost forgotten — soft silver with a deep black patina, like something that once lived on a fancy table, then quietly slipped into memory.
At first, I wasn’t sure what they were for. Too small for serving... too elegant to ignore. But the more I looked, the more I saw possibilities: mint trays at a wedding, tiny platforms for rings or trinkets, holders for elegant shot glasses, or even a moody prop for photography.
