Held to the light the warmer layers glow like tea, while the darker seams stay solid, which gives the surface real depth for a stone that is only a fraction of an inch thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handles are clear quartz. Quartz is colorless and glassy, so it reads as a bright break at each end of a warm brown plate, catching light from the side and throwing it back across the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It’s Made\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePieces of agate in similar tones and colors are joined with a clear epoxy resin, poured over them to make one firm plate. The tray is then trimmed with electroformed brass, which is real metal grown onto the stone until it has thickness and is permanently bonded, not a leaf or coating that can rub off. The clear quartz handles are trimmed the same way, so the metal on the handles matches the metal on the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: brown agate pieces set with clear epoxy resin to form a single firm plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 9\" x 14\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: electroformed silver, rose gold or gold on the tray and the handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles: clear quartz, trimmed with electroformed brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood use: serve with a liner, board or servingware rather than putting food straight onto the stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe agate pieces are matched by tone, not cut to a pattern, so the joins and the mix of browns fall differently on every tray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Gift For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm brown and clear quartz suit a wooden table, so this is an easy housewarming gift and a good anniversary present for a household that already has its own style. It also works as a host or hostess gift at Christmas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUse and Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it for a cheese or fruit course with a liner or servingware over the stone. Wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and dry it afterward; do not soak the tray, since water should be kept away from the resin joins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Tangerine Store","offers":[{"title":"Rose Gold","offer_id":57472040731004,"sku":"AlW7lLjbbZ50WoNl1,jlJj5DAz3xADZWlL,2pMM0l01DNnYldDj,L8VJyDoRY6wpYgE3,1oxlOQQ3k1nQPNWy,6Q39EdvZ0RdooEWy","price":95.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":57472043975036,"sku":"AlW7lLjbbZ50WoNl1,jlJj5DAz3xADZWlL,2pMM0l01DNnYldDj,L8VJyDoRY6wpYgE3,1oxlOQQ3k1nQPNWy,6Q39EdvZ0RdooEWy","price":95.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Gold","offer_id":57472044007804,"sku":"AlW7lLjbbZ50WoNl1,jlJj5DAz3xADZWlL,2pMM0l01DNnYldDj,L8VJyDoRY6wpYgE3,1oxlOQQ3k1nQPNWy,6Q39EdvZ0RdooEWy","price":95.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Antique Brass","offer_id":57472101613948,"sku":"AlW7lLjbbZ50WoNl1,jlJj5DAz3xADZWlL,2pMM0l01DNnYldDj,L8VJyDoRY6wpYgE3,1oxlOQQ3k1nQPNWy,6Q39EdvZ0RdooEWy","price":95.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/1124\/6204\/files\/BrownPlatedAgateServingTrayWithClearQuartzHandles-1_90093369-e8ef-48d7-9f73-bfcd0823939d.jpg?v=1789866448","url":"https:\/\/velorahomedecor.com\/products\/brown-agate-serving-tray-clear-quartz-handles","provider":"Velora Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
