> Inquire about this or a similar itemThis simple, round tea tray, carved from solid wood, may appear unremarkable at first glance. However, over the years of use, its cracked wooden surfaces have been lovingly repaired with traditional pegs, and the once-vibrant red lacquer has faded into a rich, subdued patina that invites the tea to be served. The passage of time in true daily life inevitably strips away artifice, revealing the beauty of utility. We encourage you to enjoy this tray as a companion for your daily tea and confections.
