The Story

Behind this piece

Made to carry use, not just attention.

Crafted from walnut, maple, and purple heart, this serving tray showcases one of woodworking's most timeless hardwood combinations. The rich walnut provides warmth and character, while the purple heart centerpiece and maple accents create a striking visual contrast.

Designed to be both beautiful and practical, its generous 12 in x 22 in size makes it ideal for serving drinks and appetizers, displaying decor, or organizing everyday essentials. Each tray is handcrafted and finished to highlight the natural grain and unique character of the wood.

Maker's Notes

Decisions in the handwork

Walnut, maple, and purple heart have always been one of my favorite combinations. The colors complement each other beautifully and create a look that feels both classic and contemporary.

To balance the warmth of the hardwoods, I chose matte black pipe-style handles inspired by industrial design. The result is a tray that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern character, built to be used, enjoyed, and admired for years to come.
