AdHoc: Aura

Serving Tray Black 50 cm

Black isn’t a colour. It’s a choice.

Some objects don’t need to be loud to be noticed. The Aura round serving tray by AdHoc in black is one of them. With a 50 cm diameter, it creates space for glasses, small dishes or spontaneous arrangements. Its clean, circular form is framed by a gently raised edge that offers both visual calm and practical stability. Crafted from oiled ash wood, the dark finish reveals a subtle natural grain, making each piece unique. Integrated handles ensure comfortable carrying, while the 4.3 cm height keeps the tray light yet present. It’s an object that fits naturally into its surroundings – without trying to dominate them.

Minimalism that opens up space

The Aura tray in black is more than a serving piece. It acts as a quiet surface where objects can find their place. Whether used for drinks, snacks or as part of your table setting, it structures space without restricting it. The dark tone adds depth and allows materials like glass, ceramic or metal to stand out. It’s a piece that steps back – and in doing so, connects everything around it.

Where form meets intention

For over 25 years, AdHoc has been creating products that balance functionality and design. The Aura collection, designed by Robert Franzheld, follows a clear principle: reduce to the essential, and let materials speak. Recognised with awards such as the German Design Award and FORM#, the brand continues to focus on long-lasting, thoughtful design. It’s not about forcing attention – but about creating objects that naturally belong.

A quiet centrepiece

The Aura serving tray in black pairs effortlessly with both light contrasts and tonal arrangements. Combined with glass or natural materials, it creates a refined interplay of depth and lightness. Whether for everyday use or special occasions, it’s always there – without demanding attention. And sometimes, that’s exactly what makes all the difference.
