JATEX International Newport Tray

This tray is primarily designed as a decorative accent piece rather than a serving platter. While it can hold dry items, we do not recommend using it for direct food contact or liquids, as the copper finish may react or tarnish over time.

To maintain the luster of the copper, wipe the tray occasionally with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, which can scratch the surface and strip away the protective finish.

Yes, as a natural metal, the copper will likely develop a unique patina with age and exposure to air. If you prefer to keep it looking bright and new, you can use a gentle copper polish occasionally, though many prefer the character that comes with natural oxidation.

The tray is handcrafted with a smooth base, but it is always a good practice to use felt pads or a protective coaster underneath if you are placing it on delicate wood or glass surfaces to prevent any potential scuffing.

Because it is handcrafted from solid copper, the tray has a substantial, high-quality weight to it. It is sturdy enough to hold heavy candles or decorative objects without sliding or feeling flimsy.
