Cherry Bark Serving Tray

About: Elegant Japanese serving tray in rich, reddish-brown cherry bark veneer. The surface features dramatic highlights in the grain pattern, which are created by stripes of light brown inherent to the wood. This handmade tray was created in the long tradition of cherry bark veneer work, practiced in Japan for well over 1000 years. Like flower arranging and haiku, cherry bark veneer work was originally developed by the Samurai as a way to channel their bushido spirit and express their creativity. Today craftsmen take bark and pound it down into thin strips before applying the veneer to the surface of our solid wood tray.
