Floral-Shaped Mother-of-Pearl Tray Adorned with Butterfly and Peony Motifs

“Where light gathers in silence, and every petal shimmers with quiet delight.”

This tray is not merely functional—it is a still life of grace, formed in the shape of a flower and gently raised on a subtle base to offer presence and poise. Each curve of its silhouette breathes a softness that contrasts beautifully with the glossy black lacquer, while the tray’s surface unfolds like a quiet garden in bloom.

At the centre, a radiant mother-of-pearl peony blossoms in stillness—its luminous petals reflecting a spectrum of pale violets, creams, and soft greens, depending on the angle of the light. From this bloom, delicate branches unfurl, scattered with buds and leaves, encircled by a gathering of butterflies in flight. These creatures do not flutter in haste; they linger, suspended in time, offering a feeling of gentle movement within stillness.

The use of mother-of-pearl inlay (najeon) adds not only visual richness but also a subtle tactile rhythm—each motif meticulously hand-placed, catching light with a whisper rather than a gleam.

The base of the tray is slightly elevated, offering not just visual depth but also a sense of distinction when placed upon a table. It rises just enough to separate itself from the ordinary, inviting attention without asking for it.

With a generous 32 cm diameter, this piece serves gracefully during quiet tea moments or intimate dessert gatherings. But beyond its function, it remains an object of contemplation—one that anchors the room with restrained splendour.

This is not a tray.
It is a garden resting on your table.
A breath of spring, carved in stillness.
