Overview Materials Return/Shipping Policy Description:This brass tray is an exercise in structure and proportion. Think of it as a small platform, a defined plane with a precise ed ge, architectural in feel yet easy to live with. The raised lip creates a subtle boundary, framing whatever rests inside it. Keys, cups, objects, even light all feel composed within its clean perimeter. As the day shifts, light moves across the surface, highlighting the warmth and geometry of the metal.
