Carved from a solid block of wood, the tray has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, sloping sides, and a deep interior basin. Years of use have imparted a smooth patina and a well-worn, wabi-sabi texture that highlights the original wood grain. Darkened to a rich brown color, this provincial tray brings a touch of organic modern to contemporary interiors as a catch-all bowl or serving platter. less
