FAQs

Is the 'Earth' color variation consistent across all trays?

No, due to the natural silver travertine material, each tray will have unique lines, tones, and gradations. The 'Earth' color is a general descriptor, and the specific pattern will vary from piece to piece.

Can I place hot dishes directly on the tray?

It is not recommended to place hot dishes directly on the stone surface as it could cause thermal shock or leave marks. Always use trivets or heat-resistant mats.

What is the best way to clean spills?

Wipe up spills immediately with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild, pH-neutral soap and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Is the tray suitable for outdoor use?

This tray is designed for indoor decorative and functional use. Prolonged exposure to outdoor elements like direct sunlight and moisture may damage the stone over time.

How heavy is the small Enkei tray?

The tray is made of solid stone, so it has a noticeable weight, providing stability. Specific weight details are not provided, but expect it to be substantial.

Can I use this tray in a kitchen for food preparation?

While it can be used for serving food, it's not intended as a cutting board or for direct food preparation. Its porous nature and susceptibility to staining make it best suited for serving finished dishes or as a display piece.

Troubleshooting

Tray has a visible scratch

Minor surface scratches may occur due to the nature of natural stone. For deeper scratches, consult a stone care specialist or consider it part of the material's unique character.

Surface appears dull after cleaning

Ensure you are using a mild, pH-neutral cleaner and that all soap residue has been rinsed off. Buff gently with a dry, soft cloth.

Visible discoloration or staining

Act quickly to clean spills. For stubborn stains on travertine, a poultice made specifically for natural stone may be required. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
