Burnt Wood Farm Tray

This wooden farm tray from northern China charms with its rustic finish and asymmetrical form. Hand-carved from a single block of wood, the large tray is truly one-of-a-kind, shaped to follow the natural contours of the wood. The exterior has been refinished and decorated with a playful, allover pattern of wood burnt rings, contrasted by the rich patina that darkens the interior basin. Originally used for food prep in a provincial farm or kitchen, the tray brings a touch of organic modern to contemporary interiors as a catch-all or serving platter.
