Description

Birchwood with melamine-coating serving trays decorated with Things Could Be Worse patterns. We call it Things Could Be Worse because it includes reminders that, no matter how poorly your day is going, things could be worse. You could also be plagued by pterodactyls, pursued by rogue robots, pestered by zombie poodles.

Use & Care

You’ll be amazed at how many uses trays have in the kitchen, for entertaining, managing snacks on the ottoman, organizing paperwork, and bringing order to your boudoir. If you want, you can have your minions deliver important correspondence to you on a tray.

Do not heat these trays in an oven or microwave.

We recommend washing by hand since the detergents used in home dishwashers are so rough.

Where it's made

Our trays are made at the Åry workshop in Nybro, Sweden. The team takes sheets of FSC®-certified birch veneer, and smooshes them together with melamine goop using high heat and pressure. Åry has been producing high quality products in their own factory since 1952. All the raw material for our trays are sourced within Europe.

Trays

Very nice trays. Sturdy and decorative. I got the blue ones and am saving up for the red ones to use next Christmas. I have quite a few pieces from this company and I enjoy using all the pieces.

Beautiful Trays

I use trays frequently in my life. These Calamity trays are beautiful! Just the right size for a tea tray; for lap project work; carrying lunch to the outside patio; organizing the mail; gathering ingredients for a favorite recipe... So happy I bought these. The trays are also wonderful gifts.
