Discover handcrafted serving trays for chai, breakfast in bed, drinks and snacks. Our serving trays come in wood, cork, rattan and glass, many with sturdy handles for easy carrying. Hand-painted floral, lotus and print designs sit alongside minimal wooden trays, so you can choose a tray that serves guests and doubles as a coffee table or vanity organiser.
How to choose a serving tray
- Handles: serving trays with handles are easier to carry when loaded with cups and plates. Look for metal, leather or cut-out wooden handles.
- Size: a tray around 16 x 10 inches carries four cups of chai with snacks; larger trays suit breakfast in bed or ottoman styling.
- Material: wooden and hand-painted trays add warmth, cork trays are light and water-resistant, and glass-topped trays wipe clean in seconds.
- Styling: when not serving, use your tray to group candles, books and a small plant on a coffee table, or perfumes on a dresser. Pair it with our wooden serving platters for a coordinated table.
