About this product
Form and function
The tray is open and shallow, with a low lip that keeps things in place without obscuring them. Its proportions, roughly the length of an A4 sheet and half as wide, make it a natural landing spot for keys, a candle, a watch, or a few stones. The whitewash finish gives it a chalky, matte surface that reads pale and calm against most surfaces, letting the carved motif hold the eye without competing with what sits around it.
Mango wood
The tray is cut from mango wood, a dense, close-grained hardwood with a warm, slightly golden tone that shows through the whitewash as a soft ghost of grain. Mango trees are fast-growing and often harvested from orchard stock past its fruiting years, so the timber carries a kind of second life. The wood has a satisfying weight to it, solid without being heavy, and the grain gives each piece a slightly different character beneath the wash.
The Buddha face
The face is carved into the surface of the tray, its features, closed eyes, a composed expression, rendered in low relief against the whitewashed ground. In Buddhist tradition, the image of the Buddha in repose is associated with stillness and inner clarity; here it functions as a quiet visual anchor, giving the tray a presence that a plain wooden surface would not have. It sits between decorative object and something more considered, a piece that works in a secular home as easily as a more spiritually oriented one.
Living with it
The whitewash finish is porous, so keep the tray away from standing water and damp surfaces, it is not suited to holding wet items or acting as a plant saucer. Wipe it with a dry or barely damp cloth. Over time, the finish may show light marks from use, which tend to add to its character rather than detract from it. The base is bare wood, so place it on a surface you are happy to rest wood against directly.
