30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
Two round trays in antique gold over dark metal, one to nest inside the other.
Valerie is a set of two round trays, made of metal with a fine wire mesh base and a side band stamped in a filigree pattern. The finish is antique gold worked over a dark base, so the gold catches on the raised mesh and the embossing while the recesses stay dark. A pair of looped handles sits on each tray.
The larger tray is about 42cm across the handles and the smaller about 34.5cm, and the smaller nests inside the larger for storage. Use them on a coffee table or ottoman to gather a candle, a small stack of books, the remote, or a few dried stems. They work for cups and packaged treats too, though the open mesh base suits dry items more than anything loose.
Why we love it
- ◆ Two trays, one buy, a larger and a smaller that nest together when not in use.
- ◆ Antique gold over dark metal, the two-tone finish reads warm and a little vintage.
- ◆ Filigree and mesh, the stamped side band and open base give it detail from every angle.
- ◆ A natural styling tray, made to gather and lift a small group of things on a table.

How to style it
Valerie earns its place by gathering a few things together, so style it as a base rather than filling it.
- On a coffee table, group a candle from our candle holders with a small book and a sprig of dried stems.
- Use the smaller tray on a dresser or bathroom bench for jewellery, keys, or a small bud vase.
- Pair it with our other trays and bowls for a layered tablescape.
- Keep what you set in them dry and lightweight, since the base is open mesh.
Stylist's Tip Style the larger tray and leave the smaller one empty and nested underneath, or split them across two surfaces. An empty tray reads as intentional, an overfilled one reads as storage.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and use a dry soft brush to lift dust from the mesh base and the filigree. Keep them indoors and away from damp, since the finish can mark. Use them for dry items rather than wet glasses or loose food without a liner, as the base is open mesh. Wipe up any spills quickly with a barely damp cloth.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many trays come in the set?
Two. One larger and one smaller, and the smaller nests inside the larger when you are not using them.
Can I serve food and drinks on them?
They work for dry items, cups, a teapot, packaged treats, or styling pieces. The base is open mesh, so for loose food or wet glasses, sit them on a liner or coaster. Indoor use only.
What style of room does it suit?
French country, vintage, and rustic rooms. The antique gold over dark metal sits well on timber, marble, white, or black surfaces, and pairs with linen, dried grasses, and brass.
How big are they?
The larger tray is about 42cm across the handles and 36cm across the rim, and the smaller about 34.5cm across the handles and 29cm across the rim. Both stand around 9cm tall.
Would it make a good gift?
Yes. A set of two trays is an easy housewarming or hostess gift, useful straight away and easy to store nested when not in use.
Because Valerie is hand-finished, slight variations in the antique gold finish and texture are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
