I saw this and immediately it caught my eye: I just love the deeply-grooved pattern and how sharp and symmetrical it is, even in rectangle form. The starburst and repeated etched edges are somewhat Atomic yet can harken back to a white-washed kitchen with Mom in an apron mixing her pancakes in a giant red Pyrex bowl sometime in the 40s even. I know it was originally meant for entertaining, part of a tray outfit for condiments, but how useful and lovely it would be on a desk or vanity, laying in the sun, a convenient collection space for little things like coins or paper clips.
