What can I use a heart-shaped wicker tray for?

Its decorative shape makes it suitable for organising jewellery, perfume bottles, cosmetics and smaller household accessories. It can also be used for wrapped gifts or table arrangements, particularly where the shape forms part of the presentation.

What is the difference between full willow and split willow?

Full willow uses complete rods rather than willow strips that have been split lengthways before weaving. This generally produces a more rounded, textured surface. The full willow construction is particularly noticeable along the raised edge of this heart-shaped tray.

Can the tray be used to display small potted plants?

A small potted plant can be incorporated into a decorative arrangement, provided it sits inside a suitable waterproof saucer or protective container. The willow itself is not waterproof, so avoid allowing excess water or damp compost to come into direct contact with the weave.

Is this tray suitable for a dressing table?

Yes. The shallow sides make it a practical place to gather perfume, jewellery boxes and small accessories without concealing them. The heart-shaped outline also creates a decorative feature, allowing the tray to serve as part of the room's styling.

How should I clean the woven willow?

Use a soft brush or dry cloth to remove dust from between the rods. Minor marks can be wiped gently with a lightly dampened cloth, followed by thorough drying. Avoid soaking the tray or leaving it exposed to prolonged moisture.
