Know before you buy
No, the GY Tray is not food safe. It is intended for decorative use or for organizing items like keys, candles, or stationery rather than direct contact with food.
To maintain the natural finish, wipe the tray with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, harsh cleaning agents, or placing it in the dishwasher, as moisture can damage the solid oak.
No, the GY Tray does not feature handles. It relies on a minimalist, geometric design with a raised rim, which provides a secure edge for holding or moving the tray.
The medium tray measures 15.25 inches in diameter, while the large tray measures 19.25 inches. Both sizes share the same 1.25-inch height and minimalist round profile.
Yes, the tray features a smooth, flat surface framed by a raised rim. This design is ideal for displaying objects or serving items that require a stable, level base.
