Description
The Genoa is a 33cm white marble tray carved from a single block of natural marble with subtle grey veining running through the surface. The tray features a raised edge detail at each short end, giving a defined profile when viewed from the side, and a polished smooth finish across the base and sides.
Designed for dressing tables to hold jewellery and cosmetics, coffee tables as a base for candles and ornaments, or as a serving tray for drinks and small plates, the tray's 16cm depth accommodates grouped items without feeling cluttered. The 1.2kg weight keeps the tray stable when placed on fabric surfaces or rugs, and the polished base sits flat on wood, glass and stone tabletops without scratching.
Each tray shows different mineral veining depending on which section of the marble block it was cut from, so no two pieces are identical. The natural variation in vein density and tonal contrast is a feature of the material. The white marble pairs with both warm-toned interiors and cooler greys, and the polished finish softens light reflections compared to high-gloss stone.
The Genoa is part of a wider Libra marble collection that includes bookends, wall hooks and tabletop storage pieces cut from the same quarry source, allowing coordinated accent pieces across a room.

Frequently Asked
Does the marble vary between individual trays?
Yes. Each tray is cut from natural marble, so the grey veining density, pattern and tonal variation differ between pieces. This is a feature of the natural stone, not a defect.
How is the marble cleaned?
Marble is porous and softer than granite. Wipe with a dry soft cloth for daily cleaning. For spills or marks, use a barely-damp cloth with distilled water and dry immediately. Avoid acidic liquids (lemon juice, vinegar, wine) which can etch the polished surface, and do not use household sprays or chemical cleaners.
Can it be used as a serving tray?
Yes, but the marble itself offers no grip, so items can slide when the tray is lifted or carried. It works well as a static base for drinks glasses or small plates on a coffee table, but less well as a carried serving tray for multiple filled glasses.
What other pieces are available in this collection?
The Genoa collection includes marble bookends, wall hooks, tabletop storage boxes and sculptural ornaments, all cut from the same white marble with grey veining. Use the search function or browse the Libra Interiors category to find coordinating pieces in stock at Niori.
