Silver Square Tray

Masanobu Ando

• Introduction

  I am a Silver Square Tray. Every tray has a silver lining.

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  We use this tray as a personal plate because it's a great size for a few sweets or breakfast patisseries. The walls make it ideal for serving, but the size is actually perfect for a single person serving size. I’m sure Ando-san uses it for exquisite wagashi desserts to share, but a couple mini donuts with tea for one will do in our books.

   

  Silver Square Tray was curated by Angélique Chmielewski.
