    This was a gift to a relative from her boyfriend in the military during World War II. The only thing I know for sure is that he sent it to her while he was stationed overseas. She kept this even though he married another when he came back home. She never married, but kept all the items that he sent her. The three stamps are from different pieces. The diameter of the tray is approximately 13 inches.

      Thank you so much, Riply206, for the information. It has made the items even more exciting for me. As a result, I have been doing some research on the Shen family and it is very interesting. Thank you again!
