Versatile Tea Service Meets Space-Saving Furniture:

This hand-hammered tea tray table transforms traditional metalwork into functional furniture. The silver-plated brass tray features thousands of individual hammer impressions creating intricate dimpled texture—the signature of authentic dinanderie metalworking. The round tray rests on a hand-carved wooden folding stand (24 inches high) with geometric inlay patterns, creating a stable surface for tea service, coffee table use, nightstand, or outdoor entertaining. The folding mechanism collapses flat for space-saving storage, while the removable tray serves drinks or hangs as wall art. Available in nine sizes from 13.7-inch personal service to 39.4-inch gathering tables, plus silver-plated and brass gold finishes.

Handcrafted with Seven Days of Metalworking Mastery:

Each tea tray table requires 7 days to source from Kamal’s metalworking collective in Marrakech’s Sidi Ghanem quarter, where fourth-generation craftsmen preserve centuries-old hammering techniques. Master metalworkers spend 5-7 days hand-hammering the brass surface—striking thousands of precise blows in concentric circular patterns. This dinanderie technique creates characteristic dimpled texture that reflects light dynamically and distinguishes handcrafted work from machine-pressed alternatives. Each hammer depression is individually placed, resulting in organic variations proving authentic craftsmanship. The carved wooden stand features hand-carved geometric patterns—diamonds, chevrons, triangular motifs—with contrasting dark wood inlay. The cross-brace construction provides stability while enabling folding for flat storage.

More Than Serving—A Cultural Bridge and Heirloom Investment:

Choosing this tea tray table supports Marrakech’s endangered metalworking traditions and fair trade communities. Kamal’s workshop employs 14 master craftspeople and 6 apprentices earning 3-4x Morocco’s minimum wage, transferring skills to the next generation. The removable design honors traditional hospitality where siniya (brass serving trays) move from kitchen to gathering space. The dual-material construction—brass and carved wood—ages beautifully rather than degrades. Silver-plated brass develops warm patina over decades while solid wood gains character with use. The folding mechanism solves modern space challenges where multi-functional furniture is essential.
