Le Cadeaux has become the leading innovator in unbreakable, fine melamine china with designs inspired by the French and Italian countryside. Designed with a much heavier than typical melamine weight.

Solid white with a dimple effect. Beautiful enough to dress the table for any indoor or outdoor gathering.

LAMOU was started by two friends who attended architecture school together and met up years and many chapters later to create printed wood objects for the home. Every baltic birch tray is made by hand and features artwork which is digitally printed directly onto the wood. Since wood is s natural material, each tray will vary slightly.  Each tray is finished with a water-based polyurethane, simply wipe off any excess liquid after use and your tray should last forever. Two sides of the tray feature a depth of 2", while the other two sides have a depth of only 1.25" which allows for easy grasping for carrying the tray.

This tray features beautiful blooming blue mums and foliage against the natural baltic birch wood. A great gift for the gardener or nature lover in your life!
