Know before you buy
The tray measures 7.5 inches in length and 3.5 inches in width, making it a compact piece suitable for smaller surfaces.
While it is a decorative piece, it is primarily designed for desk organization or as a display accent. It is best suited for holding stationery, keys, or small trinkets rather than food service.
The tray features a smooth, flat base consistent with its decorative design. If you are placing it on a delicate surface, you may want to use a small felt pad to prevent scratching.
To preserve the finish and the World Map Hondius design, we recommend wiping the tray clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges.
Yes, the 7.5-inch length is perfectly sized to hold standard-length pens, pencils, or a small collection of office supplies, keeping your desk tidy.
