Formed from natural riverstone, the MUUBS® Valley Tray has a grounded, sculptural presence shaped as much by the material as by the design. A raw, irregular outer edge contrasts with the smoother interior surface, allowing the stone’s natural colour, grain and markings to remain part of the visual character. At 400mm in diameter and just 20mm high, its low, broad profile reads almost like a stone disc, bringing quiet weight and texture to a kitchen bench, dining table or console. Designed by Birgitte Rømer, it sits comfortably within organic, wabi-sabi and Scandinavian-influenced interiors where natural variation is allowed to remain visible.
Design Details
- Handmade from natural riverstone, with inherent variation in colour, pattern and surface character.
- Raw outer edge paired with a smoother interior, creating a clear contrast between rugged texture and refined form.
- Broad 400mm diameter and low 20mm profile give the tray a restrained, architectural silhouette.
Why It Works
- Introduces a dense, mineral texture alongside timber, linen, ceramic and metal finishes.
- The muted grey-brown stone tones provide visual weight without dominating a neutral or natural-material palette.
- Its low form works as both a functional tray and a sculptural surface for fruit, serving pieces or grouped objects.
FAQs
Is each Valley Tray identical?
No. Natural riverstone varies in colour, pattern and texture, so each piece will have its own individual character.
How should I care for the tray?
Wash with mild soap, warm water and a coarse brush. It is not dishwasher safe. The porous stone can also be treated with a thin layer of neutral, food-grade oil, which may deepen the colour slightly.
What size is the Valley Tray?
The tray measures 400mm in diameter and 20mm high, giving it a wide, low-profile form.
