Tray Chic

{ Via: Jayson Home }

The idea for this post began with an email from Jayson Home. It featured the fabulous Ikat Trays above. They have been handcrafted in England from authentic cuts of Ikat textiles. A protective coating has been applied to make it easy and safe to serve up your favorite fare. Their uses are many, and they will add an interesting layer to the dining table. Trays in general are haute host and hostess helpers.  Here is a roundup of others that are very 
très chic.




Hasami Trays
These nesting trays are rather remarkable. Made in Japan of wonderful walnut.

This tray adds the wow factor to any table! It's part of the A by Amara line, and I think it is quite wonderful.

Copper & Brass Louis Trays
