What makes Nordic trays a Scandinavian household staple?
Nordic trays are a Scandinavian household staple because tray culture supports fika, the daily coffee-and-cake ritual, and everyday tidying; they carry cups, candles and small objects room to room. At Eleish Van Breems Home we carry Nordic trays in regional designs. Compare the Georg Jensen trays for a silversmith's take.
How do I choose Nordic trays for daily fika?
Choose Nordic trays for daily fika by size and grip: a medium tray with a raised edge or handles carries two cups and a plate steadily, while a non-slip surface helps. Pick a wipeable finish for daily use. For fine porcelain to serve on, see Augarten Wien.
How do Nordic trays organize small surfaces without clutter?
Nordic trays organize small surfaces without clutter by corralling loose items into one defined zone: keys and candles on a hall tray, or oils beside the stove. Anything on the tray reads as intentional. Keep one near a coffee station for cups, sugar and small essentials. Add a bottle opener to a bar tray.
What materials are Nordic trays usually made from?
Nordic trays are made from materials such as wood, birch plywood, lacquered board, melamine, cork and metal. Care depends on the material, so check the product details before cleaning. For a larger option, see the serving tray.
