How big is it?

11.8 in / 30 cm across the top, raised on three legs. It weighs 1.3 lb / 0.6 kg.

What do people put on it?

A stack of small plates, a pot of succulents, a candle, soap and a folded cloth in a bathroom. Anything that gains from being lifted.

Is the whitewash opaque?

No. It's brushed thin on purpose, so the paulownia grain reads through it rather than being painted out.

Can I serve food on it?

For dry things on a plate or a cloth, yes. Don't cut on it and don't put it near water for long.

Description

Whitewashed Pedestal Tray

A round paulownia tray raised on three oversized legs and finished in a whitewash thin enough to let the grain through. Paulownia is among the lightest timbers in use, so it weighs almost nothing for its size.

Not quite a cake stand, not quite a riser. It lifts whatever sits on it a few inches clear of the table — a stack of small plates, a pot of succulents, a single candle.

  • Paulownia wood, whitewashed
  • 11.8 in / 30 cm across
  • Oversized pedestal legs
  • Wipe clean with a damp cloth
  • 1.3 lb / 0.6 kg

Our materials

We work with solid wood, stone, glass and natural fibre, chosen for how they age rather than how they photograph. Every piece is finished by hand, so grain, tone and outline shift from one to the next.

More on how we choose them

A QUIET OBJECT

Anything on it becomes a display

Three inches of height changes how a thing reads. The same candle, the same small plant, the same bar of soap — lifted clear of the surface it stops being clutter and starts looking placed. That's the whole job of this tray.

MATERIAL & MAKING

Light wood, heavy legs

Paulownia turned thin on top and left generous underneath.

01

Timber

Paulownia

One of the lightest woods in use. The tray weighs almost nothing for its size and won't strain a delicate surface.

02

Form

Oversized legs

Three deliberately chunky legs, which is what stops a pale round tray looking flimsy.

03

Finish

Thin whitewash

Brushed on and wiped back, so it lightens the wood without hiding what it is.

04

Use

Riser, not stand

Low enough to slide under a shelf, high enough to lift a display clear of the table.

FROM THE WORKSHOP

The temptation with a pale piece is to paint it. We wipe the wash back instead, so you still see the grain underneath — otherwise you may as well have bought plastic.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions, answered

A few things worth knowing before it arrives.

How tall does it sit?

The three legs lift the top a few inches clear of the table — enough to raise a display without turning it into a cake stand.

Is it sturdy?

Yes. The legs are oversized on purpose and the top is solid paulownia; it is light, not fragile.

Will the white mark?

It's a wash over bare wood, so it can pick up marks like any natural finish. A damp cloth takes most of them off.

Can it go in a bathroom?

Yes, as long as it isn't standing in water. Soap, a folded cloth and a small plant all work well on it.

Does the grain show?

It does. The wash is brushed thin deliberately so the paulownia grain stays visible through it.

Made by hand

The variation is the object, not a flaw.

Every piece is shaped, sanded and finished in a small workshop. Grain, tone and outline move from one to the next, so the piece that arrives is yours rather than a copy of the photograph.
