Pata Large Palm Fibre Tray

Free Gift

Trays make entertaining easy, especially when dining outdoors. Our natural palm fibre Pata Tray is just the thing for carrying cutlery, glassware and crockery between your kitchen and entertaining area. Perfect to minimise back-and-forth trips to the kitchen so you can spend more time with your guests!

Timeless and neutral, the Pata Tray is also a beautiful way to introduce woven texture to your home styling when you’re not using it. Place one on an open kitchen shelf for instant textural impact or on a coffee table to hold a vignette of your favourite pieces. Pair this tray with our smaller Pata tray which features higher sides, ideal for carrying drinks.

Handmade by Fair Trade artisans in a village community of Bangladesh, each piece is assembled by bundling kaisa grass; wrapping them in fine strips of date palm fibre and coiling and weaving them into shape. The women who make these pieces work from home and a genuine Fair Trade partnership ensures they are paid fairly for their time and skills, among many other benefits.

  • Tray: 50cm diameter x 7cm high
  • Hand harvested and bundled kaisa grass (inside the palm fibre)
    Hand stripped palm fibre is wrapped around the kaisa grass as they are coiled and woven into shape.
  • - Our palm fibre trays may lighten slightly as the fibre ages.
    - To clean, we suggest you shake or vacuum them to dislodge dirt or dust.
    - They are robust and will withstand minimal condensation however for heavier water-based spills, blot with kitchen paper or an absorbent cloth as soon as possible and allow them to dry. Do not rub stains or spills from your tray as this may spread the stain and loosen the palm fibres. Please note that oil-based or brightly coloured spills may not be easily removed - we recommend trying the above methods with a gentle eco-friendly cleaner.
