Chaban (Tea Tray) Lotus Panel, Light Wood, Steel Drawer # 97073

This chaban combines a slatted lotus-panel top with a removable steel-lined drawer beneath. The open strips let rinse water pass through, while the raised frame, corner fittings and low feet create a stable platform for gongfu brewing and make draining tea straightforward.

Chaban means tea tray in contemporary Chinese tea vocabulary, and this style belongs to the practical furniture of gongfu tea. Water is poured over the pot and cups during a tea session, then collected below so the tabletop stays clear.

Made from light-coloured wood, it shows visible grain, a carved lotus panel and warm reddish-brown finishing. Remove and empty the drawer regularly, then wipe the slats and frame dry to protect the wood.
