Know before you buy
This tray is designed to hold excess water during a tea ceremony, keeping your workspace clean. It acts as a functional base for your teapot and cups, catching spills through its integrated drainage system.
Because this tray is not dishwasher safe, you should hand wash it with a soft cloth and mild soap, then wipe it completely dry. Avoid soaking the wood or using harsh chemicals to preserve the natural finish of the sandalwood.
This tray is specifically sized for individual use, measuring 7 inches wide. It is best suited for a single teapot and one or two small tea cups rather than a large, multi-person tea set.
No, this tray is not food-safe. It is intended strictly for tea service and decorative purposes, and should not come into direct contact with edible items.
The tray does not have a non-slip surface or rubber feet. You may want to place it on a stable, flat surface to prevent it from sliding during your tea ritual.
