Spalted Maple Serving Tray – Live Edges & Sculpted Handholds

Beautifully patterned Spalted Maple, two natural live edges, and sculpted handholds give this substantial serving tray a distinctive balance of organic character and thoughtful design.

This handcrafted Spalted Maple tray showcases the intricate lines and natural markings that make spalted wood so compelling. The unpredictable patterns move across the pale maple surface, while live edges along both sides preserve the wood's original contours.

Uniquely shaped handholds are cut into each end, providing a practical way to lift and carry the tray while adding an unexpected sculptural detail. Stainless steel feet elevate the piece slightly above the table, giving it a finished, architectural presence.

At 21.5 inches long and nearly 13 inches wide, this tray offers generous space for an abundant charcuterie presentation, a collection of cheeses and appetizers, or an assortment of serving dishes. Its remarkable figure and distinctive shape make it equally appealing as a centerpiece when not in use.

What Makes This Tray Different

The intricate spalting gives this piece its visual character, with fine lines and organic patterns that could only have developed naturally within the wood.
