Classic Tray Love Heart

This Classic Tray Love Heart product was created by American designer Alexander Girard for the Swiss Vitra label. With its eye-catching colours and fine materials, it will grace dinner parties and breakfasts, adding designer style to any occasion.

The quality of the Classic Tray Love Heart is no surprise. Both designer and label are legendary names. Girard was born in New York and became a 20th-century master. His product designs range from 1950s radios to restaurant pieces and kitchen accessories - and his sensuous, playful style is instantly recognisable. Swiss, family-run Vitra is one of the world's best-known designer furniture companies.

This particular tray was created especially for the label and has a wonderful retro-aesthetic. Measuring 28 x 28 cm, it is a medium-sized dining tray, with 2cm deep edges - helping to keep fluids away from upholstery and bed linens. Instead of using industrial plastics, Girard opted for laminated wood, which gives the tray a more solid, substantial feel. However, the materials are secondary here, and the star of the show is Girard's appealing love heart motif. If you want to add some positivity and warmth to meals, it's the perfect design to choose.
