TOMIOKA Traditional Cherry Bark 'optical illusion' Trick Tray

Kabazaiku is a uniquely Japanese art form that used the national tree, Sakura, and turns its bark into beautiful, long lasting products. There are about five companies remaining who still master the traditional, complex art form that was passed down from generation to generation. One of these companies is TOMIOKA SHOTEN. 

This 'trick tray' is a unique Japanese traditional design, whereby skilled craftsmen design their craft in such a way the eyes will play a trick on you. Due to the different colors and materials used, the tray seems to have dept, which creates a complex, but beautiful sight. Surprise your guests by serving the tea in a unique, Japanese setting, create beautiful food photos for your blog, or decorate it as part of your interior.
Due to the proper finish, the tray is not slippery and can be washed normally.    

3 of the same designed "Trick Plates" fit on this tray!
