This tray brings together two materials, ceramic and wood, shaped through different hands and processes, coming together into a piece that feels both functional and considered.
The tiles are hand-painted in Al-Khalil (Hebron), where ceramic work continues as a small, skilled practice, with patterns applied carefully by hand. Each tile carries slight variations in line and finish, reflecting the human rhythm behind the making.
They are then set into a smooth wooden frame, creating a balance between structure and detail, where the warmth of the wood sits alongside the vibrancy of the painted surface.
It sits easily on a table, whether used for serving, holding everyday objects, or placed as part of a larger setting. It moves naturally between use and display, becoming part of the space over time.
Subtle variations and natural crazing within the glaze are part of the character of the tiles, a result of traditional processes that do not affect the durability or use of the tray.
