This lacquerware serving tray is crafted from natural wood, its grain showing striking variations that give each piece a unique character. It is finished by hand with a single coat of lacquer, combining the soft glow of urushi with the warmth of the wood to bring an understated elegance to the table.

The rim is subtly angled rather than vertical, a thoughtful detail that makes wiping away spills effortless. Shallow notches along the sides fit comfortably in the hand, enhancing daily use.

Available in three colors—black, red, and brown—the tray offers distinct moods: black conveys composure and a modern edge, red highlights the contrast with tableware for a vivid accent, while brown balances between the two with a deep, nuanced tone that harmonizes easily with other pieces.

Generously sized, the tray accommodates a full ichiju-sansai (one soup, three dishes) set or serves perfectly as a ramen tray, making it a versatile companion for both everyday meals and more considered presentations. It is a piece that turns the ordinary table into something quietly special.
