Michael Aram Palm Vanity Tray

The tray is crafted from stainless steel with an antique goldtone finish, which is generally resistant to tarnishing. However, to maintain its luster, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners and simply wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth.

While it is designed primarily as a decorative vanity tray, it can certainly hold perfume bottles or skincare products. We recommend placing a small coaster or protective pad underneath any items that might leak, as the textured surface is not perfectly flat.

Because of the sculpted, organic texture, dust can settle in the grooves over time. A soft, dry microfiber cloth is usually sufficient to remove dust, or you can use a soft-bristled brush to gently clean the crevices without scratching the finish.

The tray has a solid, substantial feel typical of Michael Aram's metalwork. It is heavy enough to remain stable on a vanity or dresser without sliding around easily, though it does not have rubber feet on the bottom.

The organic, palm-frond shape adds character, but it does mean the surface area is not a standard rectangle. It works best for grouping a few key items—like a perfume bottle, a ring dish, and a lipstick—rather than trying to fit a large collection of products.
