This catch-all tray is made from cork fabric — the outer bark of the cork oak tree, harvested in Portugal without felling the tree. Tiradia Cork handmakes it in Portugal, and the snap closure lets it fold flat when not in use. Each piece will show slight variation in grain and color; that is the material, not a defect.
At 6" x 6" x 1.5" and 0.14 lbs, it is a small tray suited for keys, coins, or desk clutter. Cork is naturally water-resistant and holds up to daily handling. The honest trade-off: "cork fabric" typically bonds the cork layer to a textile or polyurethane backing, so check with Tiradia for exact backing composition before composting — unbacked cork can be home-composted, but a composite may need to go to landfill. Packaging details are not disclosed by the vendor; ask before purchase if that matters to you.
