Coinciding with the 250th anniversary of American Independence, the MFA is reimagining its 18th-century galleries for the first time since they opened in 2010. One of these galleries explores Asian influence on Boston and the surrounding areas.
Our decorative, but functional, tray allows one of these pieces to take on a life outside the galleries. It is inspired by a Qing dynasty plate featuring lotus flower scrolls. Take home this gorgeous piece that has roots in the tradition of American art.
