Where to use it

Planning notes

Set it beside a lamp or a mirror, and keep two or three items in it at most so the shape shows. The black horn pairs with the Acanthus coasters and boxes for a matched surface.

Measure the surface first and leave a few inches around the tray, so it reads as a deliberate layer. Repeat its color in a nearby pillow, vase or book spine to tie the scheme together. For entertaining, use the tray as a drinks station on an ottoman, with a bottle, two glasses and a small bowl of garnish. Carry it with both hands, using the handles or sides to keep contents steady.

Who this is not for

• Not for hot dishes straight from the oven or stove.
• Not a sealed serving surface: use a liner under loose food and wipe clean after use.
• Not for outdoor use: we recommend it for indoor rooms.

Care

Wipe with a dry or lightly damp cloth and dry right away. Hand wash only if needed, and do not soak.
