310 Copper Octopus Acacia and Resin Tray

310 Copper Octopus Acacia and Resin Tray

$295.00

This is a one of a kind painting in metal leaf and resin on a solid round wood tray.

There is subtle glitter in the resin to make it look like polished stone. The design is made by hand with metal leaf and features a variegated copper octopus on a plum background.

These trays are the new, upgraded style of round trays, and larger than the original round trays. You can read about the upgrades and see examples. You may also want to check out the matching semicircle boards in the Homewares section.

The acacia tray measures approximately 16.4" round by 2.4" high. The tray is packaged with ribbon and a care instruction card. It has been stamped on the back with the artist's custom wood burning brand.

Cleaning instructions: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. The flat resin tray top can be cleaned with glass cleaner or alcohol. The wood can be conditioned with mineral oil.

The tray has been finished with food safe resin, and can be used as a serving tray or decorative tray. Not recommended for hot foods, prolonged outdoor use or immersion in water.

This is a handmade piece of art on natural acacia, and all handmade pieces will have small cosmetic bubbles or defects in the resin, or irregularities in the wood. Check photos carefully and message us for any clarifications.

About this Species

Giant Pacific Octopus

The Giant Pacific Octopus is adapted to survive in cold, oxygen rich water. These intelligent creatures have amazing camouflage abilities, and the females care intensively for their eggs. The octopus feeds on fish, crabs, shrimp and other marine invertebrates.

Octopus are threatened by climate change and ocean warming, since their copper-based blood does not carry oxygen efficiently, and they are sensitive to changes in oxygenation in the water.
