Gleditsia White Marble Octagonal Cake Stand with Nickel Foot

Raise tarts, cakes or canapes on a white marble octagon with a polished nickel foot band.

Gleditsia is a cake stand with an octagonal white marble top on a short marble pedestal, finished with a polished nickel band at the foot. The lifestyle photo shows it holding small raspberry tarts on a wood bar next to a bar tool stand and a wine cooler. The octagonal top is white marble with soft gray veining, and the short pedestal gives the stand a low profile. The nickel band at the foot catches the light and finishes the piece neatly.

At 11 inches across and 4 inches tall, it holds a 9 inch cake or a dozen canapes. The cool stone keeps pastries fresh-looking during service, and the clean eight-sided outline suits Modern and Transitional tables, cafe counters and hotel afternoon tea. The pedestal is short, so desserts sit just above the table.

• Cafe counter: Display tarts and pastries.

Planning notes

Place a cake no larger than 9 inches so the edge stays inside the stone. The pedestal is short, so keep it away from the table edge.

White marble goes with brass, wood and glass. Pair with the Asplenium bar tool set, which also uses marble and nickel. Use it at a dessert table for tarts. In a hotel lounge, it gives afternoon tea a focal point.
