Fritz Hansen - JH Tray Oregon Pine, brass

Fritz Hansen J. H. Tray.

The JH Tray is a design by Jaime Hayon for the Danish Fritz Hansen. The bold and whimsical looks are hallmarks the designer is known for.

The JH Tray is made of pine wood, this type of wood is known for its distinctive rings that are different from those of other types of wood. The tray is round with raised edges. These have recesses on both sides that offer the possibility to lift and carry the tray.

There are also other recesses along the perimeter of the tray. These are sealed with crescent-shaped inserts that can also be used to carry the tray. But one of the most striking features is the brass-colored handle in the middle. You can use these to lift the tray with one hand!

The JH Tray has a height of 38 cm and a diameter of 26.5 cm. It is a beautiful object in itself.
