Lacquered Wood Scalloped Tray (8in/20cm)

Lacquered Wood Scalloped Tray (8in/20cm)The founders of Scarlett and Sallis India Holmes and Suzie Dowty share an appreciation for eclectic objects. Their scalloped trays are handmade in Vietnam using the Son Mai technique; the wooden base is cut, moulded and covered in natural lacquer before a thin layer of clay is added. Then, layers of lacquer and colouring are applied which are sanded down approximately 20 times to reach the seamless, high gloss finish.
