Decor & Centrepieces
What turns objects into arrangements.
A candle, a figurine, and a small vase on a coffee table are three objects. The same three objects on a tray are a composition. The tray defines the boundary of the arrangement, gives it a base from which each element reads as part of a whole, and elevates the result from a casual collection of objects to a deliberate styling decision.
This is the function of a decor tray, and it is one of the most practical purchases in the collection. It requires no other changes to a room. It works with objects you already own or with new pieces from the range. And it makes an immediate, visible difference to the surface it occupies.
Styling
The most effective tray arrangement uses three elements at three heights. Place the tallest at the back - a candle holder, a slender vase, or a tall figurine. Place the medium piece in the centre - a figurine, a short candle, or a small jar. Place the smallest or flattest element at the front - a stack of coasters, a small sculptural piece, or a single tealight.
Keep the material palette consistent across the objects in the tray: all gold, all silver, or all in the same material register. The tray itself can be a different material - a gold metal tray with resin objects reads well because the tray defines the boundary and the objects occupy the space within it.

Are the trays sized for Indian coffee tables?
