Cherry Bark Hariwake Tray

Thoughtfully designed for a single setting, this guest tray offers just the right space for a cup of coffee and a small plate of sweets or fruit. Its foundation is crafted from layered plywood, creating a sturdy yet lightweight base.

The surface features a delicate interplay of polished plain bark and marbled chirashi bark from the wild cherry tree, arranged in subtle belt pattern. This natural contrast evokes both simplicity and quiet elegance.

The bark’s organic properties—gentle breathability, moisture retention, and antibacterial strength—create an ideal environment for storing fine tea leaves. Tightly sealed through the hands of skilled artisans, each caddy offers not only function, but a deep connection to the materials and methods of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.

A quiet object of utility and beauty, designed to age with grace.
