Sikigu Pleats Tray [Oblique, Straight]

A tray with a pleated floor, cut using a half-cut technique that scores the paper without severing it. The ridges catch light, throw small shadows, and give whatever you drop in something to settle against.

Keys stop sliding into a corner; rings and earrings sit in the folds rather than in a heap. The outer edge stays crisp and geometric against the textured interior, which is what gives the piece its character. Two pleat styles, two colourways each.

Trade notes

Reads as a jewellery or bedside piece as much as a desk one, which widens where it can be sited — try it in a gift or homeware bay rather than only in stationery. The pleating photographs poorly and shows well in person, so this is a line that needs to be out of its packaging.
