Maxwell & Williams — Silk Road | Porcelain Tray

Maxwell & Williams Silk Road — The Beauty of the Everyday Ritual

There is something precious about slowing down: arranging sweets on the tray, pouring the tea, letting an ordinary moment become a small ceremony. Maxwell & Williams' Silk Road rectangular tray brings that feeling to the table — with its geometric patterns, sumptuous flowers, and little birds that seem to have settled on the rim by chance.

Why we chose it for you

Silk Road is inspired by the original paintings of Gabby Malpas, an Australian artist based in Sydney, and reinterprets the tradition of chinoiserie with a contemporary touch. The attention to detail can be seen in the finest real-gold accents and the bird motif decorating the inner rim: not a generic print, but a composition designed to be admired as much as it is used. It is this balance between applied art and tableware that makes it worthy of a thoughtfully curated collection.
