What Is a Decorative Tray?
A decorative tray is a flat, often rimmed platform designed to organize, display, or serve items while adding visual interest to surfaces like coffee tables, ottomans, or vanities. Unlike purely functional serving trays, decorative trays double as accent pieces that anchor styling arrangements and protect furniture surfaces.
What You Get With the Chelsea House Coloring Tray
- Hand-Painted Artistry -- designer Elaine Burge's original multicolored abstract artwork transforms this functional piece into a gallery-quality accent.
- Protective Glass Surface -- a clear glass layer safeguards the hand-painted design beneath while creating a smooth, easy-to-clean serving surface.
- Cut-Out Handles -- integrated handle openings on both sides allow secure, comfortable carrying from kitchen to table or room to room.
- Substantial Construction -- at 7.6 pounds and crafted from solid wood, this tray provides stable support for glasses, dishes, or decorative objects.
- Versatile Sizing -- the 22 x 17.5-inch footprint works equally well as a coffee table tray, ottoman organizer, or breakfast-in-bed platform.
How Do You Style a Coffee Table Tray?
Layer this hand-painted serving tray with sculptural decorative objects, a small stack of books, and a candle to create a curated vignette on your coffee table or ottoman. The white-cream base and multicolored pattern coordinate beautifully with other home accents and accent pieces, anchoring your arrangement while protecting upholstered or wood surfaces from drink rings and spills.
