To the world she is one of many, but to you she is everything, and this tray says so with grace. To The World You Are A Mother carries Ben's illustration for the charming and unusual beneath gently curved glass, a keepsake made to be used and treasured in equal measure.
Handcrafted in our New York studio in the French tradition of découpage, each bent-glass tray is individually signed by Ben. Both practical and charming, Ben's signature glass découpage is food safe and wipes clean, and the back is softly felted. It hangs beautifully with a plate hanger and stands just as well on a gallery easel. A folded card explaining the time-honored découpage process accompanies every piece.
Let it hold her rings and small treasures, a daily reminder of everything she is to the people who love her most.

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.
