Chaban (Tea Tray) Rounded, Dark Red Wood # 97066

This rounded chaban provides a contained platform for a teapot, gaiwan, and cups during a tea session. Its slatted insert lets spilled water pass below, while the raised, smoothly rounded rim helps keep teaware securely within the tray.

The chaban belongs to the practical furniture of gongfu tea, where water is poured over teaware and collected rather than left on the table. Tea trays support this flowing preparation style and keep the working surface orderly during repeated infusions.

Made in China from dark red-toned wood, it has a polished surface and visible grain around the rounded edges. Empty and wipe the tray after use, then allow it to dry thoroughly rather than leaving water standing inside.
