All-in-one rustic wooden tea tray with nested compartments for a complete gongfu tea setup

Solves
  • cluttered tea table
  • tea set items sliding or spilling when carried
  • lack of a dedicated space to organize tea ware

Your whole tea ritual, finally in one place.

Stop shuffling cups and tools across a crowded table. A solid wood tray with nested compartments holds the full set, so brewing starts the moment you sit down.

Everything has a place, nothing has to slide

  • Nested trays keep tools in place

    Nested compartment trays separate cups, caddy and tools so they do not slide or clink when you carry the tray. Set the gaiwan and cups on the main tray, then tuck the caddy and tea knife into the smaller compartments. Pair it with your and the table stays tidy from the first pour to the last.

  • Solid wood with a charred finish

    Solid paulownia with a charred, matte surface and antique brass corner plates. The finish reads as dark walnut, the rivets stay put, and the raised rim gives the base a steady, grounded feel on the table.

  • Sized for a full gongfu set

    The main tray measures 46 x 29.5 cm and stands 5 cm high. That leaves room for a gaiwan, a pitcher, cups and a caddy without crowding the table. Check the footprint against your own teaware before you order.

Two pieces, one complete setup

  • Large wooden tea tray×1

    46 x 29.5 x 5 cm, raised rim, carved handle cutouts and brass corner plates

  • Nested wooden compartment trays

    Sit inside the main tray and hold cups, caddy and tea knife

Simple care for solid wood

  • Wipe, then dry

    Use a dry or lightly damp cloth and dry the tray right away.

  • Keep it out of water

    Do not soak the tray. Solid wood swells and can lift the charred finish.

  • Use a trivet

    Set hot kettles and pots on a separate mat, not directly on the wood.

  • Share the load

    Keep heavy pieces on the main tray so the rim and nested trays stay in line.

  • Store away from heat

    Keep it on a stand away from direct heat or sun between sessions.

Questions and answers

Will my gaiwan, cups and pitcher fit on the main tray?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The 46 x 29.5 cm main tray holds a gaiwan, a pitcher, cups and a caddy together. Keep the heaviest pieces on the main tray and use the nested trays for lighter tools like the tea knife and caddy.

Are the nested compartment trays included?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The set includes the large wooden tea tray and the nested wooden compartment trays, so you get both in one order.

How do I clean and care for the charred wood finish?
w
Wanelo · seller

Wipe it with a dry or lightly damp cloth and dry it right away. Do not soak it, since solid wood swells and can lift the charred finish. Set hot kettles on a trivet rather than on the wood, and keep the tray away from direct heat.

Is it worth the price compared with a plain tea tray?
w
Wanelo · seller

A plain tray gives you a flat surface and nothing else. This one gives you the large tray and the nested trays together, so you do not need separate dividers or a second organizer. Solid wood with brass corners is made for daily use, and the set saves you from buying extra trays one at a time.

Can I use it in a small tea corner or on a side table?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. At 5 cm high, the tray sits low and keeps the table open. Measure the 46 x 29.5 cm footprint against your side table before you choose it.
