What customers say
This Arthur Court tray earns high praise primarily for its exceptional design and superior quality. Customers consistently admire the intricate elk herd detail captured beautifully in the polished aluminum alloy, making it a stunning decorative centerpiece. Reviewers find the piece substantial and heavy, confirming its high quality justifies the investment. It is frequently chosen as a memorable gift, delighting recipients who favor rustic or lodge aesthetics.

While hand washing is required, this minor maintenance point is overshadowed by the product's durability and remarkable visual impact, leading to strong recommendations.
Know before you buy
Yes, the tray is food-safe and suitable for serving appetizers or snacks. However, because of the textured bas-relief surface, it is best used for dry items like crackers, cheeses, or fruit rather than liquids or sauces.
To preserve the finish, hand-wash the tray with warm, soapy water and dry it immediately with a soft cloth. It is not dishwasher safe, and you should avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the intricate metalwork.
Yes, the tray is crafted from durable metal, giving it a substantial weight that keeps it stable on flat surfaces. Its 25.5-inch length makes it a significant piece, so ensure you have enough clearance on your table for its size.
While it is designed primarily as a serving piece, its detailed bas-relief makes it a beautiful wall accent. Please note that it does not come with built-in hanging hardware, so you would need to use a secure plate hanger or display stand.
The surface features a detailed bas-relief design, meaning it is textured rather than perfectly smooth. While it is stable for serving, small items may not sit perfectly level if placed directly over the raised elk or tree motifs.
