In the world of luxury home living and quiet luxury, a simple decorative tray is far more than a “drop zone” for keys, wallets or phones. As part of your artisan home accessories, trays add an elevated aesthetic touch while telling a story of sustainable home decor and handcrafted excellence.

1.      Four Go-To Materials for Designer Trays

At Neyuh Home & Travel, we invite you to explore the four signature materials top interior designers choose when creating artisan trays:

Premium Cowhide Leather (Leather Serving Tray)

  • Ultra-smooth, durable leather that develops a unique patina over time.
  • Perfect as a leather serving tray, jewelry tray, or even a mini leather watch box.

High-Grade Microfiber (Jewelry & Desk Tray)

  • Lightweight, stain-resistant and easy to clean.
  • Ideal for a microfiber jewelry tray, name-card tray, minimalist entryway tray, or a compact bath tray in high-end resorts and hotels.

Artisan Rattan & Natural Wicker (Rattan Storage Basket)

  • Hand-woven by skilled craftsmen 
  • Brings a “warm hygge” vibe—perfectly Instagrammable when paired with scented candles and dried florals.

Teak & Walnut Wood (Teak Wood Tray)

  • Luxuriously textured, moisture-resistant, with natural wood grain.
  • Elevates any gathering as an artisan serving tray for tea, coffee, wine or hors d’oeuvres.

  • Create a quiet luxury home office that boosts creativity and productivity.

Bedroom Vanity

Tips for Choosing & Caring for Your Decorative Tray

Select the Right Material for Each Zone

  • Bathroom or kitchen: opt for a microfiber tray or moisture-treated teak wood tray.
  • Living room and balcony: choose a rattan storage basket or leather serving tray to enhance visual appeal.

Routine Maintenance

  • Cowhide leather: wipe gently, condition with neatsfoot oil every 3–6 months.
  • Rattan: dry clean only; avoid water pooling to prevent warping.
  • Teak: apply teak oil periodically to maintain grain and moisture resistance.
