An unstable bowl is no less practical as a dish, so long as it can contain the items that have been placed inside. The Chuckle Trays are a pair of wooden plates that have high ridges to account for their tendency to rock.
Made by Karimoko New Standard from lovely maple lumber, the servers come with a cheerful yellow finish and a clear one that reveals the natural beauty of the material. They have been whittled with consistent curves along their tops and bottoms, enabling them to be stacked when they're not in use.
Smooth concave indentations make the Chuckle Trays ideal for both decorative objects and edibles. The swaying motions invite easier access to people reaching into the bowls from either side.
