Know before you buy
To preserve the finish, hand wash the tray with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents that could scratch or dull the surface.
While the tray is designed for serving, it is best suited for room-temperature or cold items like cheeses, fruits, or desserts. Avoid placing extremely hot cookware directly on the surface to prevent potential damage to the finish.
Yes, the tray is designed for food presentation. However, it is recommended to place food items directly on the surface only if they are dry or served on a liner, as acidic foods may react with certain metal finishes over time.
The tray is engineered with a balanced base to ensure stability on flat surfaces. Its irregular, organic shape is aesthetic, but it remains functional and steady for everyday use as a centerpiece or serving piece.
Michael Aram pieces typically feature subtle protective pads on the underside to prevent scratching delicate surfaces like wood or glass tabletops. We recommend checking the base upon arrival to ensure these are intact.
