Materials & Finish
Each tray is handcrafted from solid Poplar and available in two stained finish options:
- Classic Red Oak — Warm brown tones with a traditional wood look
- Sophisticated Grey — Darker grey tones for a more modern finish
After staining, each tray receives a final natural Tung Oil finish to enhance the wood grain and provide a smooth, durable surface.
Because we use real wood, grain pattern, color, and stain absorption will naturally vary from piece to piece. No two trays will look exactly alike.
What Can I Use It For?
These trays work well as:
- Entryway or nightstand catchall
- Keys and wallet tray
- Jewelry and watch tray
- Desk organizer
- Gaming accessory tray
- Controller and cable organizer
- Playing or trading card catchall
- Game room décor
- Gift for retro-gaming fans
Care Instructions
For everyday cleaning, wipe your tray with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow it to dry naturally.
Avoid soaking the tray, using harsh cleaners, or leaving standing water on the surface.
The natural Tung Oil finish can be refreshed over time if desired to restore the wood's appearance and protection.

Our Story & How It's Made
Each tray is individually made in our family woodshop, one piece at a time.
We start with solid wood, machine the tray and detailed carved design, then individually sand, stain, and hand-finish each piece with natural Tung Oil.
Small differences in grain, color, and finish are part of working with real wood and help make every tray unique.
