Brown Agate Serving Tray with Clear Quartz Handles

A serving tray with a face of brown agate, cut to a rectangle inside a metal frame, with a bar of clear quartz set in a metal mount at each end for the handles.

The face runs tan and amber, the pieces meeting in visible joins. The handles are the unusual part: instead of brass they are bars of clear quartz, pale and milky, held at each end in a metal bracket and raised clear of the tray on short posts.

Size and Materials

• Stone face: brown agate
• Face: pieces of stone fitted together, joins visible
• Outline: cut to a rectangle
• Handles: clear quartz bars in metal mounts
• Edge: metal frame round the rectangle
• Finish: Gold, Silver, Rose Gold or Antique Brass

Every piece uses natural stone, so slight variation in color, marking and placement will occur.

Using It

Put out drinks, breakfast, or bottles and glasses on a sideboard, or use it on a dresser for perfume and jewelry. Lift it by the handles rather than by the stone. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry it straight after, and keep it out of the dishwasher. Do not cut on it.

A Good Gift For

A housewarming or a wedding registry, and the pale handles lift a warm brown face.
