The La Mére tray transforms the practical need for organization into an artful study of form and purpose. Its signature curved edge creates a gentle arc, while the carbonized ash treatment reveals the quiet drama of wood grain beneath. More than a desk accessory, it's a solution for containing life's daily artifacts—from writing implements and documents to keys and correspondence—bringing intentional order to any workspace or living environment.

Belgian designer Marie Michielssen creates work that draws from both architectural precision and organic forms, resulting in pieces that explore the harmonious relationship between contrasting elements.

Hannah ★★★★★

The curved edge is what sold me—it catches ash and keeps everything from spilling, which is more thoughtful than it sounds. The carbonized finish gives it a matte, almost velvety look on my desk, and it's heavy enough to feel sturdy without being bulky. Exactly the kind of functional piece I didn't

Harper ★★★★★

The carbonized ash finish feels almost silky to the touch and hides fingerprints beautifully, which matters since it sits on my desk all day. It’s sturdy enough to feel substantial but the arc makes it look like a tiny sculpture rather than a utility tray.

Owen ★★★★★

The curved edge is what sold me—it catches ash without any mess, and the tray sits steady on my desk even when I'm typing. The carbonized finish feels substantial, like it'll hold up for years.
