|
 | A fine example of a Gustav Stickley tray done in brass.
|
 | Another great tray signed with the early Benedict Studio mark. This tray has a great original patina with radial hammering on the ruffled portion of the tray.
|
 | This is a signed Gustav Stickley Craftsman Workshops tray. This tray was offered in many sizes and all were unique due to the nature of their production. This one has been cleaned but will slowly darken over time.

 | This is a Gustav Stickley pen tray. The complete desk sets are hard to find. You'll most likely have to complete the set piece by piece or pay dearly for a complete set, that is if you can find one.
|
 | This is a great and early signed Onondaga Metal Shops hammered copper tray. The work in some of these early trays is really fabulous. Some of the OMS and Benedict elongated trays have this very distinguishable design where the corners of the trays look as if they were pulled like taffy. Photo courtesy of Treadway Galleries.
