Antique Bronze Tray Signed A. Marionnet

Description

A beautiful example of Albert Marionnet's bronze work. The tray is decorated with what I believe are grapes or some other type of berries. The tray is signed in the bronze and is stamped France Depose. My understanding is the Depose with accent over the e means it was registered or has some kind of patent. This was in my grandmothers collection of collectibles and might have been bought on one of her trips to Europe. She lived in Knoxville and it is possible she bought it there as well. Who knows?
Please feel free to ask all questions. I've had possession of the tray for at least 15 yrs so I can only answer questions regarding condition. Happy to provide additional photographs. The tray has not been polished while in my possession. I'm not an expert on bronze finishes, but it appears to have a nice patina.
