about the trays
Every tray is carved by hand from a single block of Balochistan onyx, by artisans working in lineage, and finished in our studio in San Diego. Because each one starts as its own block, the banding runs through the whole piece. Ivory, honey, green, rust and tobacco, in the proportions the stone formed with.
We leave the stone raw and seal it with beeswax. We don't use chemical polish. It would make the stone tougher and our work easier, and it would stop being raw stone.
Most onyx trays run about 9 by 5 inches and an inch and a half deep, at 2 to 2.5 lb. The Calacatta Vagli trays, also quarried in Balochistan, are cut to one design at 9 by 5 by 2.5 inches, so their photos show the form rather than your exact slab. Every onyx tray is photographed on its own, and that is the tray we pack.
Quarried where making began.
good to know
Is the tray in the photo the one I'll get?
Yes, for every onyx tray. Each one is photographed on its own, and that's the one we pack. There's nothing to compare it to.
The Calacatta Vagli trays are cut to one design, so their photos show the form and the stone. The veining on yours will be its own.
How do I look after it?
Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, and keep it out of standing water. There's more in our guide, How to Clean Stone.
How does shipping work?
Every order ships from our studio in San Diego. Ground delivery in the U.S. takes 3 to 6 days, and it's free on orders over $100. We also ship to 25 countries across Asia, Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. That takes about a week, priced at checkout.
If a piece arrives damaged, photograph it as it comes out of the box and email hello@saeadesigns.com. We'll sort out a refund or an exchange. Returns are open for 30 days, unused and in the original packaging, with return shipping taken from the refund.
