Know before you buy
No, this tray is not food safe. We recommend using it to hold glassware, napkins, or pre-packaged items rather than placing loose food directly on the rattan surface.
The tray is designed with a flat, circular profile that is easy to grip from the sides. Its 13.75-inch diameter is sized specifically for passing drinks or small items comfortably in a social setting.
Because the material is natural rattan, it should not be submerged in water or placed in a dishwasher. Simply wipe the surface clean with a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth if necessary, ensuring it dries completely afterward.
This tray is not oven or microwave safe and is not designed to withstand high heat. It is best suited for serving room-temperature or chilled beverages and decorative display.
The tray features a woven rattan construction, which provides a stable, textured surface. While it is flat enough to hold glasses and barware securely, it is not a perfectly smooth, solid surface like wood or glass.
