Banana Leaf Nesting Tray Set

From: $88

Banana leaf nesting stacking trays are crafted from the locally-gathered leaves and stalks of banana trees.  Artisans use a specially designed, handmade needle to thread dried banana leaves around the banana stalks.

We envision these trays as a beautiful and interesting way to serve your guests, be it bringing snacks and drinks to the family room, or laying out towels in the guestroom.  The smallest tray fits US letter-size paper, and the medium and large trays are are perfect for serving a 9″x13” baking pan- and keeping your dish warm!  The three trays of the set nest inside one another for easy storage.

The Nesting Trays are made by artisans from the Abaharaniriterambere People Fighting for Development Cooperative, who meet on their local school grounds.  We invite you to get to know them- they are featured over there to the left.
