Enjoy the modern and stylish beauty of aluminum combined with the organic feel of wood with this serving tray from ALART. The serving trays from the ZEN series express the beauty of Japanese patterns on the beautiful metallic surface of aluminum.
The tray is approximately 38 cm (15 in) in length and can be used to elegantly serve confectionaries or small tea cakes at tea parties. It will also work well as a tray to plate sushi or h'orderves at a dinner party. The ends of the tray are crafted in an artful manner with uncoated natural beech wood.
"Shippou" is a pattern in which circles of the same size are overlaid one quarter on top of the other, resulting in a continuous combination of diamond-like patterns and petal-like patterns. This pattern signifies peace, happiness, and prosperity of offspring with its endless chain of circles.
Six round urethane rubbers are attached to the back side of the aluminum tray to prevent slipping, scratches on the table, and for easy handling of the tray.

Maker / Brand
ALART is a brand created by Marushin Kinzoku Kogyo in 1947, when the company began a new search. The brand pursues the possibilities of aluminum based on the concepts of original ideas that break free from stereotypes, design that enhances the creativity of the user, and creative craftsmanship.
Origin
Metalwork has long been prized for its durability and gorgeous appearance. In Japan, bronze swords and harnesses were made from the Yayoi period (10th century BCE–mid-3rd century CE) based on techniques introduced from China and Korea. With the rise of Buddhism, the construction of temples, Buddhist statues, and ritual implements flourished, and metalworking techniques also advanced. Eventually, a wide variety of products such as tea ceremony utensils, Japanese swords, armor, and ornaments came to be manufactured.
