Two simple words that hold so much weight. Welcome Home reads like a deep exhale, an open door, a light left on just in case. Printed boldly against a softly aged parchment ground, it feels familiar and grounding, as if it’s always belonged there. This is the kind of phrase that turns arrival into ritual, marking the moment you step inside and everything slows down.
Handcrafted in our New York City studio using the traditional French art of découpage, this bent-glass tray is made one at a time, with imagery layered beneath glass and fired into permanence. The surface carries a gentle patina and subtle variation that gives it character and warmth, never stiff or overly perfect. Each tray is individually signed by Ben, a quiet signature that places it firmly within his world of thoughtful, enduring objects.
Designed to be both beautiful and useful, the tray is food safe, wipe clean, and finished with a felted back. Style it on an entry table to greet guests, hang it with a plate hanger as a welcoming statement, or display it upright on a gallery easel. Each piece arrives with a folded card explaining the time-honored découpage process. A small object with a generous spirit, offering comfort, belonging, and the unmistakable feeling of home.

The French call it découpage, pronounced day-coo-pahzh. It flourished in the salons of 18th-century France, where paper, patience, and a steady hand turned everyday objects into works of art.
Ben honors the French technique, in reverse. The artwork goes on the underside of the glass, by hand, so you look through the glass to see it. Nothing sits on the surface. The image seems to float, lit from within, the way a pressed flower looks when you hold it up to a window.
Every design starts with something Ben discovered or created. A pattern he drew. A botanical plate or a scrap of antique paper carried home from a market in Europe, chosen because it meant something.
Decoupage is a science of perfection. Each piece is made slowly in our New York studios by a talented team of artists, patient and exacting, who will not settle for less than a perfect result. Each one is backed in felt, so it can rest safely on a cocktail table, and signed by the artist, Ben Busko.
Each tray is decoupaged by hand beneath the glass. A little care keeps the artwork beautiful.
Suitable for hanging with a plate hanger or standing on a gallery easel.
