Know before you buy
No, this tray is not food-safe. It is designed primarily as a decorative piece or a sophisticated vessel for displaying small objects, keys, or stationery.
Because it is not dishwasher safe, you should clean the tray by hand using a soft, non-abrasive cloth. To maintain its luster and prevent tarnish, use a high-quality silver polish specifically formulated for silver-plated items.
The asymmetrical ring motif is the signature design element of the Vertigo collection, created by legendary designer Andrée Putman. It adds a modern, sculptural touch to the tray's clean, rectangular silhouette.
This tray is not oven or microwave safe and is not intended for direct contact with food. It is best used as a refined accent piece for your coffee table or vanity rather than for kitchen service.
The tray does not feature a non-slip surface. We recommend placing it on a stable, flat surface or using a small felt pad underneath if you are concerned about scratching delicate wood or glass tabletops.
