Tray Stands handmade from maple wood

Maple large tray stand that functions at two heights and packs neatly away. Handmade by PilgrimWaters in Gloucester, MA. Shown with large tray.

PilgrimWaters large maple tray stand shown in horizontal configuration.

Our tray stands are designed and handmade exclusively for PilgrimWaters trays. Each stand works in four configurations — two heights, tray upright or inverted — so you can adapt it to your space and how you use it. When not in use, the sides unslot and nest snugly inside the tray for compact, clutter-free storage. Handmade from select maple hardwood in our Gloucester, MA studio.

Find your tray, add the stand — and if you want to take it off the table entirely, our tray hook mounts it beautifully on the wall.

FAQ

Which stand fits my tray?
Each stand is sized to match a specific tray. The large stand pairs with the Large Neat Tray; the small stand pairs with the Mini trays. Check the individual product pages for pairing details.

Is it easy to assemble?
Yes — two pieces, no tools, no hardware. The joint is intentionally loose so the pieces slide together easily. Full step-by-step instructions (with video) on our assembly page.

What are the four configurations?
The stand works at two heights — 24″ and 16″ — and the tray can sit right-side up (as a functional tray) or inverted (revealing the artwork on the underside). That gives you four distinct looks from a single piece.

How does it store when not in use?
Unslot the two sides and they nest flat inside the tray. The tray then hangs on the wall using our custom hook — stand included, out of the way.

Can I use the stand outdoors?
We don’t recommend it for prolonged outdoor use. The satin finish handles light moisture well, but extended exposure to weather or direct sunlight will affect the wood over time.

Is the stand sold separately from the tray?
Yes — the stand is sold separately so you can add it to an existing tray or purchase them together.
