About the Item
This sculptural tray is a refined example of Danish modern craftsmanship from the second half of the 20th century. The circular frame is formed from bent rosewood, with a flowing rim interrupted by elongated cut-out handles that give the piece an elegant profile while remaining practical to lift and carry. The pronounced grain of the rosewood is set against a deep red lacquered wooden base, creating a warm and balanced contrast that is characteristic of Scandinavian design from the period.
The quality of the craftsmanship is evident in the precise joinery and the carefully moulded edge, reflecting the Danish cabinetmaking tradition in which even functional objects were approached with architectural consideration. As both a usable tray and a sculptural object, it brings material richness and quiet refinement to an interior, whether in use or displayed on its own.

Tapio Wirkkala (1915-1985) can be described as one of the icons of Finnish design and a symbol of the international success of post-war Finnish design. Tapio Wirkkala studied sculpture at the Helsinki Central School of Industrial Design from 1933 until 1936, but he was also a self-studied artist in many areas, including glass design. His success as a glass artist began in 1946 when he designed one of his most famous works, the Kantarelli vase, for Iittala. Wirkkala gained worldwide success in 1951 at the Milan Triennial, where he received three Grand Prix awards: for the exhibition architecture, glass design and wooden sculptures. Tapio Wirkkala felt a deep relationship with nature and his absolute favourite spot was located in Finland's deepest forests. From the beautiful landscape, Tapio Wirkkala could find inspiration for his works, often characterised by organic shapes. Leaves, birds, ice and water are recurring themes in his design.
Tapio Wirkkala was also a furniture designer and a sculptor. He started his career as a sculptor in the 1930s but abandoned the traditional sculpture in the post-war years – in the early 1950s, alongside with other works, he started to develop an entirely new relationship with sculpture and a new technique to be used. The result was a series of unique plywood sculptures which combined form and movement in the vibrant, densely lineated surface of plywood. Wirkkala’s sculptures represented exceptional abstractism and gave Finnish sculpture...
