How it’s Made
How It’s Made
Each of our handcrafted serving and ottoman trays is built with a commitment to quality, durability, and timeless design.
We begin with locally sourced hardwood, carefully hand-selected for its rich grain and natural beauty. Each piece is then milled by hand, ensuring precise dimensions while maintaining the wood's unique character. After milling, the boards are glued up and re-milled to achieve the perfect balance of strength and elegance.
Once the structural integrity is set, we move into pre-sanding to create a smooth working surface before transitioning to the CNC engraving process. Each custom engraving is cut deeply into the wood, providing a crisp, elegant finish that will last a lifetime. Unlike laser engraving, CNC engraving creates a more tactile and substantial impression, adding a refined, luxury element to every tray.
After engraving, the trays undergo multiple stages of resanding, refining every edge and contour to a flawless finish.
Finally, we apply a premium hard wax finish, which enhances the natural beauty of the wood while providing a durable, water-resistant protective layer. This finish not only preserves the tray’s elegance but also ensures longevity, allowing it to withstand daily use while aging gracefully over time.
Every tray is put through a rigorous quality control process, where we meticulously inspect for smoothness, durability, and engraving precision. If it doesn’t meet our highest standards, it doesn’t leave the shop.
More than just functional, each of our trays is a statement piece, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern precision. Whether used as a serving tray or an elegant ottoman centerpiece, it embodies the artistry of handmade decor, elevating any space with a touch of sophistication.
