Description

A rare and beautifully preserved 19th-century French folding dessert tray by Henin & Hartz, one of Paris’s esteemed silversmiths of the Belle Époque. This sculptural three-dish guéridon style tray features a central arched handle and three silver-plated dishes that swivel open and closed in a graceful, tiered movement.


Henin & Hartz pieces are highly sought after for their refined proportions, quality of plating, and elegant Parisian silhouette. This example retains a brilliant, even silver sheen, with only the lightest antique surface marks—exceptional condition for a functional 19th-century service piece.


Perfect for entertaining, as a dessert or bonbon tray, for tea service, or as a striking decorative object on a console or dining table.
