Plane And Concave Water Storage Tea Tray

Plane And Concave

Plane And Concave is a tea tray with a water storage base. The tray combines a natural black gold stone surface with a die-cast aluminum chassis that collects used water. One side of the stone surface is flat and holds cups, while the concave side is used for making tea, so wet and dry areas remain separate. The concave part sits at three quarters of the chassis height. When the stored water reaches that level, tea flows from the drainage hole and signals that the base should be emptied. The stone surface is shaped by CNC machining.

Plane And Concave Water Storage Tea Tray by Chenghua pan was featured as an innovative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Plane And Concave Water Storage Tea Tray earned the Iron A' Design Award in Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design in 2020. The A' Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design Award is a highly prestigious international design recognition program which rewards excellent design of pots, pans, cutlery, plates, bowls, glasses, baking dishes, graters and more.
