Beautifully combining form with function, the Barbry wooden tray is a practical and stylish way of carrying food and drinks from kitchen to dining room. Always working to solve problems in the most elegant way, designer Aurélien Barbry simply curved the tray’s outer lip at each end creating two ergonomically pleasing handles. Scandinavian design at its most pure!
