Myanmar lacquer tray and German silver serving plate catalogued in German museums
A traditional lacquer tray from Myanmar, dating to the first half of the 20th century and crafted with the yun technique, has been documented in the CFA GmbH collection. The tray features a multi‑storey palace scene with a central figure, likely a king or prince, surrounded by court officials.
A silver‑plated serving platter made by Südmetall AG (formerly Süddeutsche Metallwarenfabrik K. G. Mussbach) in Mußbach, Germany, has been recorded by the Freilichtmuseum Roscheider Hof. The oval plate bears an ornamental rim, a stamped “MUSSBACH” logo and reflects the metalworking heritage of the late‑1930s to post‑war era.
Both items are now listed in museum‑digital catalogues, providing detailed provenance, material descriptions, and measurements for researchers and the public.
